The aim of the HUNT Center for Molecular and Clinical Epidemiology's Journal Club is to give researchers and students an opportunity to read and discuss timely articles within their field of interest or any interesting research coming from interdisciplinary domains. While we have named it the Statistical Genetic Journal club, we welcome papers from related topics.

Presenting participants may choose a relevant article and present the main figures, tables, and take aways, while leaving time for group discussion of methodology, interpretations, and limitations. Other participants will be provided the article in advance in order to familiarize themselves and prepare for the discussion. 

Meetings generally take place on the last Thursday of every month from 13:00-14:00 CET unless otherwise announced. Participation via Teams is provided for those unable to join in Øya Helsehus 1st floor conference room (ØHM11).
