Speakers:
* Prof. Jenny Doust (Bond) “How to do a Cochrane review”
* A/Prof. Suhail Doi (UQ) “Combining heterogeneous studies using the random-effects model is a mistake and leads to inconclusive meta-anlayses”
* Dr. Adrian Barnett (QUT) “Incorporating study quality into meta-analyses”
* Dr. Henry Zheng (QUT) “The effect size and dose-response of walking interventions to prevent CHD: Meta-analysis”
This meeting is free and all researchers conducting a systematic review or meta-analysis (not just statisticians) are welcome to attend. Please register with Adrian for catering purposes (a.barnett@qut.edu.au). After the four speakers we hope to have a lively question and answer session. If you have any questions about systematic reviews or meta-analyses that you’d like to be answered by our four experts then either e-mail Adrian in advance or bring your question on the day.
