Discover how systematic reviews can help you navigate the expanding field of biomedical literature and conduct reproducible and evidence-based research.

During this summer school, you will learn how systematic reviews can be used to map a research field, to assess animal-to-human translation, and apply the principles of the 3Rs (Replacement, Reduction, and Refinement) to optimize animal experimentation. You will receive comprehensive guidance on conducting reproducible and rigorous systematic reviews of animal studies being equiped to conduct your own systematic reviews.
