The purpose of this review course may be to present a coherent argument, or to highlight scientific gaps in the literature. Teaches students to be able to identify the "why" behind a new study, find and analyze other studies that address similar research questions, or studies that address your research question on a different level. Will enable students to learn how to synthesize the current state of knowledge (either clinical or research) of the chosen topic as a first step of becoming a clinical/translational researcher.
