Underpinning this training, you will learn to identify and critically appraise commercial and ethical decision-making crossroads. You will also learn how to communicate scientific findings to both scientific and non-scientific audiences by developing the ability to prepare a media release, a critical review of the literature and a scientific poster, conveying translational research. Translational research involves team work and leadership; in undertaking this unit you will develop these abilities through engagement in a variety of team and leadership activities.
