A reflection on the method of systematic reviews

Systematic reviews as an evidence-based research method is gaining popularity across disciplines. But what are these methods exactly? What are the pros and cons? Is a systematic review an adequate method for both qualitative and quantitative research? And why are some disciplines more prone to it than others?

This VU mini-symposium on systematic reviews will address these questions while reflecting on this increasingly used research method and its future premises. Maurits van Tulder, Henri de Groot and Theo van Tilburg will present different perspectives from medicine, economics and social sciences,exploring the strength and weaknesses of this research method in their fields. Lex Bouter, vice-chancellor, will then moderate a discussion on the basis of the presented views. Join us for this symposium and share your insights on systematic reviews!
