FP MD 6710 - Individual Research in Occupational Medicine

Students will perform research on a topic (approved by the Course Director) and produce a document presentable for publication. The course content will include formal and informal instruction on research methods, analysis of data, and ethical principles of research. Course goals will be accomplished through class meetings and individual meetings to review research progress. The research is to be presented at a regional or national Occupational Medicine conference in the spring. Students are strongly encouraged to submit their publication to a peer reviewed Occupational Medicine journal.
