OxTalks is Changing
On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Introduction to systematic review and meta-analysis
Status: This talk is in preparation - details may change
This workshop is primarily aimed at those interested in learning more about how to perform a systematic review and the basic principles of meta-analysis. This workshop include several short fire presentations covering:
* what is a systematic review and why do we need them
* what is the process of conducting a systematic review
* the basic steps in performing meta-analysis
* when is it appropriate, and not appropriate, to perform a meta-analysis
* how to interpret forest plots
There will also be a small group practical session aimed at developing a well-defined question for a systematic review. It will focus on defining the question and the inclusion criteria for a systematic review using the PICOS approach (participants, interventions, comparator, outcomes and type of study).
This workshop will be run by Dr Sally Hopewell (OCTRU)
www.octru.ox.ac.uk/team/researchers/sally-hopewell
and Dr Marialena Trivella (CSM) both of whom have considerable expertise in the design, conduct and reporting of systematic reviews of randomized trials.
