This presentation will introduce the use of the scientific methods as the basis of research inquiry. Join KRC scientist and RTC co-director Dr. Katalin Szaszi for a discussion on practical aspects of project design such as developing a research question; generating a hypothesis and formulating specific objectives/aims. Understanding these fundamental aspects of the research process will also aid trainees in writing reports, manuscripts and thesis and presenting at committee meetings. This presentation is recommended for wet and dry bench trainees at all levels

Event Details
Transparency of data and reproducibility of experiments are crucial professional requirements for rigorous research studies. Generation of detailed records of procedures and protocols is also key for project planning. Recognizing the need for standardized reporting to maintain reproducibility, many journals are now using the Structured, Transparent, Accessible Reporting (STAR) approach. Thus, these professional standards for data reporting are crucial, yet they are often overlooked when discussing fundamentals of project planning. This interactive workshop will aim at filling this important gap by discussing requirements for record keeping, data reporting and the STAR system. We will also provide tips on how to ensure proper documentation of experimental details, and how to store and organize your data, key steps in project design and preparation for future publications. Date: November 9, 12PM. Location: LKS 240. Register here.

Title: The Impact of Psychosocial Factors on the Outcome of Surgical Repair for Rotator Cuff Tears – A Prospective Cohort (IMPROVE Study)
Supervisor: Aaron Nauth
Rotator cuff tears are a common cause of pain and reduced function in the shoulder. The impact of psychosocial factors on patients outcomes following rotator cuff repair surgery is unclear. A multi-centre, prospective, cohort study was performed where patients with a full-thickness rotator cuff tear were enrolled prior to rotator cuff repair surgery. Patients completed multiple validated questionnaires to measure psychosocial functioning (symptoms of depression, anxiety, pain catastrophizing, treatment expectations and social support) at the pre-operative visit. Patients were followed for one year after their surgery.
