Learning outcomes of the learning unit
The objective of this course is to provide the student with the tools requested to analyze, critically, the medical literature. More particularly, the intrinsic assessment of study quality based on validated tools will be discussed. Students will be asked to assess constructively and critically these tools. Moreover, after having discussed the theoretical concepts of communication and medical writing, students will be faced with concrete implementations that should enable them to better understand the issues, challenges and opportunities of communication in the medical field. An important link will be made with the topic of the end of study work of each student.
