"Studies Show...," or do They? Under the Hood of a Scientific Study


Course number : 170002    ID : 26843    Section Number : OLLI

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic Learn from Johnnie Hendrickson, Ph.D., teaching professor in the School of Molecular Sciences at Arizona State University and author of “Chemistry in the World,” as he takes you beyond the headlines and into the research itself. Examine real scientific studies, many focused on health and nutrition, and discover how small design choices can influence results and interpretation. Explore what scientists look for when evaluating research and why news stories rarely tell the full story. No technical background is required just curiosity. By the end of the course, you may never read the phrase “studies show” the same way again. Osher Online is the facilitator of this exclusive Zoom course.
