Abstract

New course BIO SCI D140 “How to read a science paper” was created for students to take before engaging in research. Its aim is to mitigate the challenges in reading primary literature, and thus reduce lack of confidence in understanding, interpreting and putting in context their own research projects.

Keywords:  primary literature
