The Nottingham Systematic Review Course - Nottingham, UK (June 2022)

This course, organised by the University of Nottingham, is aimed at enabling participants to become proficient in developing and undertaking a Cochrane-style systematic review of interventions. As this is an introductory course, no previous knowledge of systematic reviewing is required.
