Hello,
While working as a chemical engineer in the pharmaceutical industry, I learned the importance of reading journal articles, During my first year of podiatric medicine, a professor suggested that we try to read at least one article per week.
I thought it might be a good idea to start up a journal club in the Podiatry Forum. We can suggest articles, discuss articles, share comments regarding statistics, and learn from and teach each other to become better students and future podiatrist.
If possible, I would like to have some structure to the thread. As people join, people can do a literature search, find an article that they are interested in, read it, and email me with the article suggestion. I can then use Poll Monkey to create a poll, send it to interested individuals (who ever emails me) and find out which article we should discuss. Which ever article wins the poll will be discussed. This means we will have to read at least 2 articles.
As school begins, we are going to become quite busy. Therefore, we may want to structure it similar to one in college. Once per month.
Let me know what you think and share ideas..
Thanks
