MCLIN 199 - L1 AWAY RESEARCH ELECTIVE MCLIN 199

[30 Hours]

The L1 Away Research Elective course provides exposure to critical topics in clinical and translational research. Students will be required to complete certain components prior to working at a non-LSU institution, including: on-line training (CITI Training certification) and how to conduct responsible, rigorous and reproducible research. They are expected to participate in lab meetings, attend seminars and receive one-on-one training by their research mentor. Students will learn about the IRB, how to review pertinent literature and plan a research project, and how to present their data (oral presentations and poster presentations). Students will begin to appreciate the important role that research plays in evidence-based medicine.
