Research Project unit (CSA418)

Introduction

CSA418 Research Project will equip you with the ability to effectively convey research findings to both professionals and patients. Your research and communication skills will be enhanced by conducting a collaborative group-based project. Working closely with your peers, you will develop a comprehensive search strategy, enabling you to compile and critically appraise literature on an emerging area of pharmacy practice. The insights you gain will guide the creation of a professional development article for pharmacists, along with a patient information leaflet on the selected topic.
