This module further develops the ideas of critical enquiry introduced at level 4. The aim of the module is to further develop student understanding of the scientific method and the statistical approaches that underpin nutritional and biomedical research, patho-physiological reasoning and evidence based practice. This module also introduces systematic search strategies, critical appraisal forms, and the tools that can be used for the statistical analysis of research data.
