Systematic Review
Background
The Systematic Review Unit (SRU) was founded on 14th July 2015 by Associate Professor Chong Yap Seng with the aim of providing administrative support and training to all departments within the National University Health System (NUHS) for conducting systematic reviews in their respective fields. Dr. Miny Samuel, an experienced researcher in systematic review methodology, manages the unit.
Aim
Our goal is to assist NUS students, NUHS clinicians, nurses, and allied health researchers in conducting high-quality systematic reviews and evidence summaries, leading to publication in reputable journals and electronic databases such as the Cochrane Library and BMJ Best Practice. Additionally, we strive to equip our stakeholders with the essential skills for conducting systematic reviews through training courses.
