The aim of the course is research capacity building among undergraduate medical students through a hands-on approach. RMHS adopts a student-centered approach design is based on active learning where student research groups develop a research project and carry out the project until the reporting phase on their own under supervision by a faculty. Overall objectives of the course are: • Define the cross-sectional, cohort, and case-control designs. • Differentiate the differences between study designs • Interpret the biases in a scientific manuscript • Define the effect estimates (relative risk, odds ratio, hazard ratio) • Define the role of the chance in scientific studies. • Define the descriptive statistics • Describe statistical tests (univariate and multivariate) • Describe the probability (p value) • Interpret the confidence intervals (skill) • Define hypothesis (skill) • Define the steps of survey design • Describe the important aspects of questionnaire-based survey • Develop a sound questionnaire • Describe the ways to effectively administer a questionnaire • Collect data (skill) • Visualize the study findings (skill) • Analyze collected data (skill) • Write a report (skill) • Present the findings (skill)
Reproductive endocrinology is a branch of science that involves endocrinologic aspect of gonadal function in both sexes and reproduction. Better understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying reproductive disorders and the application of problems of human reproduction especially endocrinological problems are important. This lecture will enable students to develop broad vision on molecular aspects of reproductive endocrinology and will allow in depth study of current aspects of reproduction.
