Developed by the Manchester Royal Infirmary, UK, each BET attempts to bring an answer to the question ""What should one do"" and each BET has a clinical ""bottom line"" for the busy physician. One should plan to go through the full website and explore its rich offerings" To know more: https://bestbets.org/

Course: Information Resources & Literature Searching
I intend to apply these techniques for literature searching in my own primary research as an UG student. The course is highly relevant, concise and well taught.. Pranav Raj, UG Student, GMC Patiala

Course : Introduction to Referencing
In colleges we do not get information like this. The best part of this course is the Summaries provided during end.. Shaik Babavali, UG Student, Guntur Medical College, Guntur (Supported by Foundation For Excellence)

Course : Mastering PubMed
This course is very useful for our future research & references. This type of short intervals with best teachers like you is very useful in our profession as a researcher & professor for making publication. Overall the pattern of the course managed is really very helpful. Many small things about the research procedure, and searching procedures in PubMed which are hard to learn if we try it alone, I learnt it from this course easily & with such amazing & supportive teacher.
