Webinar 8: How do young people make sense of cannabis evidence?

The session will take a small group discussion-based approach to understanding critical appraisal. Participants will be expected to read the session’s article in advance and be open to engaging in a discussion on the topic.

Join us for an opportunity to learn about cohort study design and understanding regression analysis!

Hosts: Dr. Donna Ciliska, Senior KT Advisor with the   NCCMT

Online Journal Club fundamentals: Participation is limited to allow for and encourage small-group discussion. Our goal is to have very interactive 1.5 hour sessions, so the groups will be kept fairly small.

Remember, you do not need to be correct (we are all here to learn!), but you must be willing to share your opinions and judgements with other Online Journal Club participants.
