    Our February Meeting will be held on Tuesday February 20, 2024 at 1:00 PM EST where we will have a discussion on qualitative evidence synthesis. We are looking for one or more volunteers to share their examples of qualitative review methodologies. Please contact Aimee Jenkins aimees@pitt.edu if interested. (Zoom link will be forthcoming)

    Our March Meeting will be held Tuesday March 12, 2024 at 1:00 PM EST.  We hope to find some volunteers who are familiar with using OPENALEX for evidence synthesis and are willing to demonstrate the use of this free and open catalog of global research to the group. Please contact Aimee Jenkins aimees@pitt.edu if interested.

    Thank you,

    Your Co-Conveners
