Systematic reviews produce high-impact publications that aim to provide the ‘big picture’ on a specific theme and thus guide related policymaking, operational practices, and future research. Collectively, the systematic reviews and meta-analyses published during the last two decades by the CSLP Systematic Review Team have collected over 12,000 citations on Google Scholar.
This presentation will be of interest to researchers and students looking to learn more about systematic review methodologies and how they might incorporate them into their own research programs.
On January 30, 2025, we will hear from several CSLP members and CPN-PREV employees* as they outline the basic methodology of systematic reviews and meta-analyses and present findings from recent and ongoing work. Participants will explain how they have used various review types (meta-analysis, systematic review, scoping review) across a variety of subject areas. This workshop will bring attention to the rationale behind systematic reviews and meta-analyses and the applied value of these categories of research synthesis and outline the key steps of implementing meta-analytical research, emphasizing how they could affect methodological quality.
*This event will feature our Director and Founder, Ghayda Hassan, our Research Lead, Sebastien Alarie-Brouillette, and Systematic Reviews Coordinator, Wynnpaul Verala.
