The Center for Clinical and Translational Science is offering a two-week course to help prepare individuals to read and interpret medical literature through an understanding of types of research design, conduct, analysis and interpretation. The course will be held weekdays from 4 to 6 p.m. Sept. 14-25 in the Finley Conference Center.

Attendance is a mandatory component of all UAB School of Medicine post-doctoral fellowships for fellows beginning their fellowships in July and for those in their second year of training who did not attend this past year.

The course is a foundation for additional training for those participating in UAB’s Clinical and Translational Science Training Program, and it also is open to others within the university who wish to attend.
