From our Founder's Desk
Welcome to our August newsletter!
Last month we had mentioned that we had 1429 registrants on www.qmedcourses.in It was nice to have these numbers in just 1.5 months of our launch. This number included individual registrants and institutional registrants.
This month our numbers have gone up to 1540. The new registrants have all been individuals. We are happy to see this growth. We are also happy that at least three people had mentoring sessions with me for correct search strategies for authoring systematic or rapid reviews. One young doctor worked on his search strategy after having studied the relevant videos in our PubMed tutorial - the Advanced Section and then refined it after a video call, where I gave specific inputs on his strategy. Another researcher also had a similar session and is in the process of finalizing his strategy. A young dentist asked for guidance and has promised that she and her co-authors would go through the relevant videos, formulate their strategy together and then come back for a guidance session.
I think three people approaching us for such mentoring is a lovely development. It feels good to "teach them to fish"!
We are also happy to share that participants of our courses include people from all streams - medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, nutrition, pharmacy and more. This month we had one webinar for pharmacists and one for MSc and PhD students of Science too. I feel grateful that we are reaching out to all!
