Um Well, so should we get started? Yeah, we can get started. So welcome to today's talk today guys. It's an introduction to basic research methods. And I'm Asher and you've probably already seen Praina on the teaching she's been doing over the last sort of couple of weeks. But yeah, we're just gonna give you a basic rundown of basic research methods, what they're applied for the disadvantages and benefits and sort of a flavoring of the different types and where they stand in terms of what's better than others. Mhm. Um So just a brief outline of what we will cover this evening, we will start by discussing what research is and why it's important to us as future clinicians. Then we'll introduce key concepts before delving into the different study designs. Uh We'll also cover the hierarchy of evidence and briefly talk about critical appraisal um before finishing with a quick quiz, um hopefully, we'll have time to really talk about the different questions in the quiz and you get to practice what you've learned this session. Um As always, the slides will be sent out to you afterwards uh upon completion of the feedback form and it will include everything we talk about in the notes. Um So there's no need for you to take notes as well. Uh And just to warn you, this will be a pretty hefty session. Um So if at any point, you have any questions or you would like us to repeat anything, just put a message in the chart and we'll do our best to explain. Um So just for those joining us for the first time, because I do recognize a coup. Well, II don't recognize a couple of the names here. Um The Women in Surgery Society. Um It's a college of society that aims to encourage and educate female medical students about a career in surgery, but these sessions are for any for everyone. Um And I just wanted to say that we're currently, elections are currently running for the 2025 26 committee. Uh, and we would encourage anyone from Cardiff who is interested, interested to nominate themselves. It would be great to see some new faces on the committee. And as we've mentioned in previous sessions, it's uh this is an excellent way to demonstrate your interest in surgery and it can lead to teaching opportunities and research opportunities that will benefit your portfolio. So, yeah, come join us. Um What?
