Local resources on improving science: basic study
What is this about?
This is a course developed by the Medical Neuroscience Program at Charité Berlin that illustrates why it is important to do good science as a PhD student, and provides guidance on how to do so. The educational resource provides the teaching materials and toolbox that instructors have used in last year's course for early career researchers.
Why is this important?
PhD students learn how to do research from principal investigators (PIs). However, science often progresses very rapidly, and not all PIs are always aware of the most recent developments and new perspectives. To remedy this problem, the course provides early career researchers with tools for self-learning that help them to navigate competently and confidently through scientific fields characterized by rapid progress and change.
