Previous Sessions of the "Probing the Literature" Journal Club
The Society of Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM) and American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) sponsors the monthly 
"Probing the Literature" Journal Club. The journal club includes a review of two papers, one of which has an author of the paper invited to provide commentary or insight for participants. The second paper is reviewed in small participant format. Lastly, a "methods consult" is offered for participants to discuss their ideas, future projects, and problems with journal editors, researchers, and reviewers to ensure they have support to bring their research goals to fruition. Below you'll find previous articles covered by "Probing the Literature" along with video recordings of the sessions and links to the papers.
