The University of Texas at Austin Libraries is excited to host an in-person 3-day systematic review and evidence synthesis boot camp. You will begin with your own research question and leave with a well-developed search strategy and next steps for progressing in your evidence synthesis project. Evidence synthesis tools such as Rayyan and SR Accelerator will be covered. Participation in this boot camp requires that at least one member of your evidence synthesis team be able to attend each of the in-class instruction sessions. Subject librarians with expertise in evidence synthesis will provide one-to-one support for each project, in addition to the instructional sessions. 

Applications are open from June 10 - July 19, 2024. 

What to expect: 

Day 1: Overview of protocol development & search strategies 

Day 2: Refine search including terminology development and database selection

Day 3: Strategies and tools for assessing findings and de-duplication 

We will not cover:

Article coding, data extraction, and writing up the evidence synthesis project
