Module description

***This module is under development***

This module builds on the knowledge you obtained in previous modules such as Diabetes - genes to environment. Diabetes Research is centred on the critical appraisal of cutting-edge research and new developments in biomedical and clinical technologies. The nature of diabetes research will be discussed such as types of research, scientific parlance and reliability and validity of data. The timetabled sessions include interactive discussions led by experts from The Exeter Centre of Excellence for Diabetes Research team in the research subtopic and peer discussion. The module will explore the use of Statistics, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science methods to advance the understanding of diabetes, its causes, and its effective treatment. Additionally, there are workshops to refine your critical analysis, thinking and writing skills.
