FSG3086 Journal Club in Biomechanics

The students and the instructor will meet regularly, at 1-3 weeks intervals, throughout an extended period. At each meeting, one person is responsible for presenting main objectives, methods and findings in 1-2 articles and should lead the discussion. All attendees must have read the article(s) for each session beforehand, and must participate actively in a discussion to critically evaluate the article.

Since the course has fewer meetings, students are intended to attend journal club meetings throughout the majority of the doctoral studies. Attendance (both as presenter and as attendee) will be taken.

This course is intended a a contionual participation in a group reviewing current scientific articles in this area, a "journal club", and is to be taken after its predecessor, 5C5087.

After the course, the student should be able to:

• Relate his/her own research to that of the global community
• Critically evaluate current literature in this field
