Welcome to this series of Cochrane Learning Live webinars, all dedicated to the topic of statistical analysis in systematic reviews.

In this webinar series, we will explore the basics of statistical analysis in systematic reviews. This series is primarily aimed at Cochrane authors and trainers from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), although anyone is welcome to attend.

This webinar series was developed in collaboration with the Cochrane Statistical Methods Group. We're pleased to be joined throughout the series by leading experts in this field, and you can find out more about each session and access the webinar recordings below.
