Description

Systematic reviews are the cornerstone of modern medicine. High methodological standards are essential for producing reviews that meaningfully inform healthcare decisions. Through this masterclass, participants will gain practical skills to develop a basic protocol for a systematic review of randomized controlled trials. The course includes an evidence-synthesis toolkit developed in-house by the Meta-Research and Evidence Synthesis Unit, equipping participants with applied tools and frameworks to conduct systematic reviews with confidence and rigour.

Target audience: This 2-day, in-person masterclass is designed for early- and mid-career researchers, clinician-researchers, and professionals working across academia, industry (clinical trials and pharma), hospitals, and public health. It is ideal for those seeking practical, hands-on training in conducting high-quality systematic reviews to support evidence-based research, clinical practice, and healthcare decision-making.
