ORTH 5209 - Journal Club

The first and second year Journal Club is a sixteen-hour course, meeting every other week that involves lecture and seminar participation. Postdoctoral students have the opportunity to discuss the merits of clinical techniques and philosophies. The purpose of the course is to familiarize the students with the classic and contemporary literature that has influenced orthodontics and to critically analyze the literature that they have read and will be exposed to. They are encouraged to consider the principals, described in valid literature, as foundations for the development of their clinical and philosophical protocols.
