Methodological activities

We aim to reflect on and highlight important methodological aspects of our work whenever possible. Project-specific activities are described in the dedicated project pages.

NESSIE staff recently had the opportunity to showcase some of our evidence synthesis reviews at the European Symposium of the Joanna Briggs Institute held at the Scottish Centre for Evidence-Based Practice at Robert Gordon University.

The Joanna Briggs Institute is based at the University of Adelaide and focuses on supporting evidence-based decision making for healthcare. The symposium aimed to bring together those working and using evidence to inform healthcare from across Europe. 

We presented a poster on our Patient and public involvement and engagement (PPIE) activity within three of our NESSIE reviews. We highlighted how we involve people with lived experience, families/caregivers and support organisations when conducting our reviews. This can lead to invaluable insights and help us to make sure our reviews address what is important to those who use health services.

We also presented a poster on how we involve those who plan and deliver health services in our reviews as well as highlighting the need to share our review findings widely, using a range of formats to reach different audiences.
