Systematic reviews and meta-analyses are essential methodologies for synthesizing research evidence and providing high-level insights into a particular field. This course, “Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis: Methodologies for Evidence Synthesis,” is designed to teach researchers and academics the step-by-step process of conducting systematic reviews and combining data from multiple studies using meta-analysis. Throughout the course, learners will explore how to frame research questions, develop search strategies, critically appraise studies, and perform statistical analyses using tools such as RevMan, R, and SPSS.

The course will offer hands-on experience with real-world datasets and case studies, enabling learners to apply these techniques to their research projects. By the end of the course, participants will have the skills necessary to present and publish systematic reviews and meta-analyses that contribute valuable evidence to their respective fields, enhancing their research impact and credibility.
