About this Event
The Clinical and Translational Science Institute's (CTSI) Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) Center serves as a resource for researchers at the University of Pittsburgh. Our objective is to provide education so that you can learn to effectively recognize and avoid research misconduct and understand the resources that are available to support your research.

During the Using Critical Appraisal to Assess the Rigor of the Prior Research workshop on September 15, the basics of critically appraising studies, including study design, methods, bias, and confounding will be discussed. This session is part of series on Rigor & Reproducibility. When applying for grants, have you ever wondered how best to meet the NIH requirement to assess the rigor of the prior research in your field? Critical appraisal can help readers determine whether a study's results are valid, what the results are, and whether they are relevant to you. Join us for the follow up session Critical Appraisal Journal Club on September 28. You must register for each session separately.
