This workshop will provide a foundation for conducting various types of evidence syntheses including systematic reviews, scoping reviews, meta-analyses, umbrella reviews and more.
While common in medicine, the systematic review methodology has been adopted by many disciplines. These review types share common steps and rigorous reporting methods. We will review commonalities and differences, give an overview of the process of evidence synthesis, and introduce you to databases and tools that support the methodology, literature identification, and the writing process.
