Melissa Rethlefsen and Jonathan Koffel, two co-authors of PRISMA-S, will show you how to ensure that every component of your evidence synthesis search is completely and accurately reported and your search is reproducible. This marketable skill can lead to increased opportunities for collaboration, greater recognition in your organization, and publication credit.
