Aim and content This course is free of charge for PhD students at Danish universities (except Copenhagen Business School), and for PhD students at graduate schools in the other Nordic countries. All other participants must pay the course fee. Anyone can apply for the course, but if you are not a PhD student at a Danish university, you will be placed on the waiting list until enrollment deadline. This also applies to PhD students from Nordic countries. After the enrollment deadline, available seats will be allocated to applicants on the waiting list. Learning objectives A student who has met the objectives of the course will be able to: 1.The student will obtain knowledge about the research topics covered within the course. These topics cover some of the central and key research topics at Xlab and at ISMC and the student will therefore obtain a broad insight into the reseach areas and focus of these two labs. 2.The student will be trained in presenting and subsequently defending their own data. The student will be challenged by a panel of senior researchers and fellow students and will gain insight into being challenged in front of a "friendly" audience. 3.The student will gain an insight into the breadth of scientific designs and their application in pre as well as a clinical reseach. 4.The student will gain insight into key methodology and their applications and see these in the perspective of pre clinical as well as clinical research.
