Comment received in Module 2 of the online course –  Mastering PubMed:Basics

It was a very nice session and it should be added in the UG program to make students life easy later on.

It was an excellent workshop. It took almost one year to arrange this workshop for my PGs. It is good to learn that courses are available online now. Many more people will have benefits

Being practical, easy to understand and interactive – these are the plus points of the workshop!

“Thank you  very much Madam for making the Mendeley Reference manager so easy to use. Much benefited by this course”

Testimonial given at a workshop conducted in ICMR Regional Medical Research Centre, Bhubaneswar

This I think was a much needed workshop for the researchers as well as students – especially pursuing Public Health Courses. The students and faculty of medical colleges and nursing institutions should undergo this training program.

Testimonial given at a workshop conducted in ICMR Regional Medical Research Centre, Bhubaneswar

The PubMed course should be included in the UG curriculum as a health information retrieval course – as an elective module along with the foundation course. I have attended a few such workshops before as a participant and resource person as well, but this workshop touched me. I am very much influenced by your style of presentation and demonstration, I would love to associate with your online course. Thank you

Testimonial given at a workshop conducted in ICMR Regional Medical Research Centre, Bhubaneswar

Excellent teaching. We need to take the E-learning course to refine and update our knowledge and skills. If RMRC does as an institution it is well and good, otherwise we can pay and be the member. We may need help while we will be doing literature search. Best Wishes.

Testimonial given at a workshop conducted in Breach Candy Hospital

This course was an eye opener. It is a must for undergrads. Have just learnt how to save hours and hours of time by attending this course. A big thank you to madam

It was overall an amazing experience. Very informative and hands on experience gave me a very good idea about PubMed and Mendeley. Would definitely come back for more such workshops. Thank you so much for your time and patience

This is the best adult learning workshop I have ever attended. Dr Manasi Padhyegujar – SMBT Medical College, Igatpuri. Participant of the workshop conducted during the IAPSM-IPHA conference – 8th Feb 2019

Testimonial for our ELearning course – “Mastering PubMed”
“PubMed is one of the most important courses I could complete last fortnight. I could treat many of my blind spots related to PubMed searching.”

“I am happy to inform you that with your support we have improved the session on Literature Search in our Postgraduate orientation program. Since this year, it is now mandatory for our PGs to document their search strategy in their literature review section of their proposal. I look forward to see this happen properly. It has been a good learning for me too.”

I could not have done my MSc thesis without your help! I have never done a systematic review and the literature search for doing one is a daunting task. Thank you for all the hand holding.

I was able to work on my thesis protocol very quickly. In fact I was the first one to get the Ethics Committee approval and submit the protocol + synopsis to the University. This, I must say is only because of QMed’s workshop.

I consider myself really lucky to have found you and the QMed team, early in my career. I have done multiple projects with proper referencing and literature searching, winning commendations everywhere.

Loved it!! Would have stayed in the stone age (with regards to PubMed) had I not attended the workshops! Loved the resource persons!!

SIMSCON 2016 

Searching the literature is a crucial part of training to be a good researcher, whatever the area of research. The American Thoracic Society’s Methods in Epidemiologic, Clinical & Operations Research (MECOR) Program trains Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep physicians to do high quality research in these subject areas as a way to improve health and the delivery of health care in low and middle income countries. QMed provides an important part of the MECOR Program Courses as literature searches are an essential component of research training.

It was a fun session (Mastering PubMed – Basics). I learned new methods with a hands on experience. Would recommend the workshop to everyone in the medical field. It makes PubMed searching fun and easy!

This workshop has taken using the Cochrane Library database to a whole new level or three! Improved my knowledge and ability to search/make sense of the data. Ability to look at systematic reviews and also clinical trials. Excellent all round. Now have to put to practice. 

An Excellent workshop on Literature Search and Reference Management. I am in my first year of MD and this workshop has happened to me at the right time, since I would need to know a lot of Literature Searching for my thesis in the coming 2 more year of MD. This will definitely help in reducing the wastage of time in Literature searching and reference management. Mrs. Vasumathi & Mrs. Lakshmi were very clear and concise in their lectures and very patient in teaching us the concepts. The best part was the hands on experience for the same. Thanks to Mrs. Vasumathi and Mrs. Lakshmi for the very interesting and educational experience.

Thoroughly enjoyed the course. Learnt a lot and I will make it a point to practice. I am sure it will help reduce the effort and time in searching articles.

Very good. Such workshops should be conducted every year for new PG residents. Keep it up

This is a wonderful workshop; It makes our work dead easy and narrows down our search, Workshops based on theoretical knowledge can be learnt from various sources but QMed workshop must be conducted in order to narrow down our search and save our precious time.

I attended a workshop by Vasumathi ma’am of QMed on Literature Searching. I went in, feeling quite sure I was doing it right!. But, by the end of the four-hour session, I was humbled. I realized till I attended the workshop, I had been using these amazing online tools much like a Palaeolithic man uses stone instruments!!

This session was extremely useful and I have found a new game to play with i.e. “PubMed”! Wish this was presented to us in 1st year of MBBS.

It is a very good learning workshop. I believe it is the first and the very important step to pursue your interest in research and even for the students who have been allotted research projects.

It was amazing, the sheer man-hours it saves is incredible. A real tragedy that quality of work suffers because we are ignorant about how to use technology. It should be part of MBBS curriculum right from first year, so that it promotes an aptitude for evidence based medicine and research and changes the outlook of students who otherwise consider literature reviews to be tedious and time-consuming. Best of luck. Looking forward to the other courses and e-learning.
