Systematic reviews play a very important role in health research. They provide a high level summary of studies and can inform policy and practice relevant to a particular area of inquiry.

Understanding review methodologies is useful for those who wish to undertake a systematic review, or just read one. This seminar will provide an overview of several types of reviews, along with simple strategies to focus a review and support review methodology.
