Presentations with R Markdown - Part 3: Changing font colors

I continue my series on constructing a presentation using R Markdown with a new addition (Part 3) on font colors. We use colors to highlight text to enhance or draw attention to it. In this article, I provide code on how one can do this in R Markdown’s presentation using revealjs.

Part 3 of this series is available on my RPubs site.

Formulating a good research question

On April 16, 2020, I gave a presentation to students from the International Society for Pharmacoeconomics and Outcomes Research (ISPOR) Student Chapter at the University of Washington’s Comparative Health Outcomes, Policy, & Economics (CHOICE) Institute. I reviewed some of the ways to think about a research topic, how to narrow the scope of the topic, and how to formulate a specific and testable research question. The presentation was meant to help students develop their own process for developing a good research question for their thesis.

I discussed the FINER criteria for formulating a research question

I also discussed the PICOT format of a research question.
