Course description
The doctoral course Thrombosis and Haemostasis has been active at KI for 30 years, previously with the course number 2484. The current course is two-week full time. The course provides the participants with well-balanced content of pre-clinical and clinical knowledge of thrombosis and haemostasis.
The present course format has been much appreciated by the course participants. The 2-week course format allows the course to reinforce, apart from in-depth understanding of coagulation, thrombosis and haemostasis and their links to multiple clinical settings through course lectures (40%), the training on research competence and independence through online learning and individual/group work (60%). The latter includes critical review and presentation of research literature, research question identification, research project design, as well as reciprocal review and criticism of project design. The second week of the course will be individual work on research literature review and research project design. A mentor is assigned for each course participant to evaluate and comment on the individual research project design.
