Knowledge Synthesis

It is not recommended to perform/assign a systematic review as:

• A thesis or dissertation/class assignment (learn more here)
•  Something to be completed in the summer

To start a systematic review, it's recommended you: 

• Have a team of three active authors 
• Have at least 15 months to complete a systematic review

We do recommend that prior to performing a systematic review, you should:

1. Review guide, the Cochrane Handbook, JBI or PRISMA
2. Review or attempt to fill out a systematic review protocol, through OSF or PROSPERO

To learn more about planning a review, look at the Cochrane Handbook or the JBI Manual
