Doing a Literature Review in Health and Social Care
Doing a Literature Review in Health and Social Care
At this very special event, bestselling author Helen Aveyard will be in conversation with Nicola Ring from Napier University. They will be discussing the challenges of doing literature reviews, offering some useful thoughts, advice and tips that might improve your own teaching or research.
This is an opportunity to engage with a leading author and nurse educationalist, to hear about her writing journey and perhaps inspire you to take this route one day! There will also be time for you to put your questions to Helen. We would be happy for you to extend the invitation to your undergraduate students.
