The Beyond the Lab: Research and Reasoning Workshop Series features WSU’s health sciences librarian, Aaron Bowen, offering workshops that draw from his wealth of experience teaching undergraduate and graduate CHP students (as well as students in other fields who’s learning touches upon the health sciences) about the research process, effective searching to find useful sources, and then understanding and interpreting those sources once they are found.

The next session (rescheduled from March 4), from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Wednesday, March 11 in 201 Ahlberg Hall will help students understand the difference between traditional research and evidence-based practice. Students will explore tools designed to support evidence-informed decisions in healthcare, including the library’s newly updated Evidence-Based Practice Portal, the UpToDate database and the Cochrane Library database.

The Beyond the Lab: Research and Reasoning workshop series continues starting at 3:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 19 in 201 Ahlberg Hall. Join for a primer on how to use the EndNote citation software.

Tired of losing track of sources? This hands-on workshop will show students how to use EndNote to import, organize and cite references across projects. Whether you’re writing your first paper or formatting a thesis, EndNote can help you stay organized and reduce last-minute stress.

Presented by the University Libraries.
