  BME Student Development Series - Becca Greenstein, Northwestern

  McCormick - Biomedical Engineering Department (BME)

  4:00 PM M345, Technological Institute

  EVENT DETAILSmore info

  "Zotero Workshop"

  Abstract:

  In this session, BME grad students will receive a brief introduction to general library services and literature searching. After that, they will be introduced to Zotero, a reference management tool. Zotero can help researchers collect, organize, annotate, share, and cite research. Using a citation management tool saves researchers hours of time and lots of frustration. Participants are encouraged to bring a laptop so they can start using Zotero during the session.

  Bio:

  Becca Greenstein (she/they) is the STEM Librarian at Northwestern University Libraries and liaison to Mathematics, Statistics, Biological Sciences, and Biomedical Engineering, where she works with researchers at all levels finding, organizing, evaluating, and citing resources for their research and coursework. Outside of work, they enjoy rock climbing, baking, volunteering, biking, and spoiling their cat, Helix.
