Evidence Synthesis in Clinical & Public Health

The Management Development Programme (MDP) on Evidence Synthesis in Clinical and Public Health, is designed to equip healthcare professionals, researchers & academics

with the essential skills to navigate the growing volume of research evidence.The programme provides a comprehensive, hands-on introduction to the fundamental

principles and practical methodologies of evidence synthesis. Participants will explore various types of reviews, including systematic, scoping, rapid, living, and evidence and

gap maps, understanding their appropriate applications through real-world case studies. The curriculum is structured to guide attendees through the entire systematic review

process, from formulating a robust review question to developing comprehensive search strategies, screening studies using AI-powered tools like Rayyan, and extracting data.

Advanced sessions cover critical appraisal of diverse study desiggns, basic meta-analysis using MS-Excel, and GRADE assessments for evaluating evidence quality. A significant

portion of the MDP is dedicated to protocol development for different synthesis types, with individual and group work sessions ensuring practical application and personalized
