journals

Journal Club is open to all health professionals and is a fun, informal way of learning to criticise papers and gather evidence to change practice.

At each meeting a speaker presents a critical appraisal of a research paper using the CASP appraisal tool.

Group members then have an informal discussion to determine whether current practice should be altered in light of the presenter’s findings

Help with presenting is available from the library or download the Journal Club Handbook for further guidance.

Journal Club schedule

Meetings take place virtually and/or in the Education and Skills Centre, F Floor, Stephenson Wing twice a month on Tuesdays 1.15-2pm and Fridays 1-2pm.

A full list of dates and further information is available in the Journal Club Handbook

Journal Club presentations

View a complete list of presentations from February 2012 to now. Copies of presentations are available on request from the library.
