The methods seminar is not only an important part of the curriculum but also very important for interdisciplinary exchange between the students of the different labs. It is the only course all students independent of the lab have to take. This is the place where students meet each other and get to know each other. It is not a classical lecture but very often a group of students is responsible for one session. Therefore students of the different labs have to collaborate and organize a lecture. Contentwise we are looking at very broad topics such as visualization, regression, personalized medicine, reproducibility & ethics, spatial epidemiology, biomedical & research ethics.

In order to be awarded the ECTEs you have to book the EB methods seminar via the UZH module booking system (OLAT is not a booking system, it is an e-learning system into which the students who booked the module are imported).

We expect that you only book the module if you actively participate in the preparation of a group session and we rely on your responsibility and on peer pressure to prevent abuse of this simple system of awarding credit points. If you are late in booking or if you need to book a spring/fall semester version for the second time, contact the Program Coordinator. Even if you don't book the module you are invited to come to the sessions and/or to actively participate in their preparation: you will learn nothing non-useful for your future career!

Time: Wednesdays, 14.00 – 16.00     Venue: Hirschengraben 84 Room F05
