A seminar-based class for graduate students in the Department of Microbiology & Immunology, intended to provide students with opportunities to delve into the literature, think critically, and hone their oral presentation skills. In this course, there is a major focus on the process of scientific peer review, where the students will participate in a ‘live’ peer review process of pre-print manuscripts and submit completed reviews. Active discussion of the subject is encouraged from all participants to determine the merits, strengths and weaknesses, and the scientific relevance of the paper presented.
