Workshop on Developing a Cochrane Systematic Review

 

Workshop on How to Conduct a Systematic Review 

 

 

The Cochrane Eyes and Vision U.S. (CEV@US) Project hosts virtual workshops on how to conduct a systematic review. The 2022 workshop sessions co-hosted with the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO) are now uploaded (see left sidebar). 


This intensive hybrid workshop hosted by Cochrane Eyes and Vision U.S. guides participants through the steps of developing a systematic review using the latest Cochrane methodology. The pre-recorded and live hands-on sessions provide plenty of opportunities to apply the methods and interact with the faculty. The workshops are led by a team with extensive expertise in conducting systematic reviews and leading the development of methods to improve systematic reviews. Cochrane Eyes and Vision review authors with registered titles, protocols, or reviews in The Cochrane Library are highly encouraged to use these workshops.
