How to read a scientific paper in biomedical sciences
No full textUniversity of Ottawa Library OER GrantNavigating scientific literature is challenging, particularly for students unfamiliar with technical terms, jargon, and dense content. Despite abundant information, the lack of formal instruction in reading and interpreting research papers leaves students ill-equipped to engage critically with scientific literature. This resource offers a structured guide to reading, summarizing, and analyzing scientific papers. It is built on case studies and open-access peer-reviewed publications to guide students through key strategies for accurately identifying critical sections of research papers, preparing meaningful summaries, and articulating insightful questions for further discussion. It provides strategies applicable across disciplines, reflecting on the interdisciplinary nature of today’s scientific inquiries
