Small group sessions

The workshop format emulates a very successful model developed by the Center for Clinical Research and Evidence Based Medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. Small group sessions, led by teams comprised of clinicians, clinical epidemiology specialists, and reference librarians, provide participants with opportunities for practice.
The small groups discuss articles from the medical literature, and follow Users' Guides that were originally published in a series in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA).
