Introduzione
Websites and journals contain millions of results.
Crafting an excellent medical literature search and identifying reliable information resources is essential to locating the best, most relevant resources to inform reports and dossiers.
Remember, the key to success is in the details, and with the proper techniques, you can unlock a treasure trove of information that will help you create informed and impactful reports.
So, take your time, be thorough, and don't be afraid to utilise all available resources to create the best possible outcome.
This workshop will be divided into two sessions.
Session 1 – Discover:
- different types of information sources
