Journal clubs are common in graduate schools and medical schools and are one of the best ways to become scientifically knowledgeable in a topic. In this case, the topic will be the field of research in which you are engaged. The discussion of journal articles will enhance your understanding of the greater scientific context of the laboratory research you are undertaking.
