DESCRIPTION:On behalf of Charo Rodriguez\, MD\, MSc\, PhD\, Director\, McGill Family Medicine Education Research (FMER) Group\, I am pleased to invite you to our upcoming one-day workshop:\n \nDate: Tuesday\, May 26\, 2026\nTime: 9:00 AM – 3:00 PM\nDoors Open: 8:30 AMLocation: Classroom #304\, Department of Family Medicine\, 5858 Côte-des-Neiges Road\, Montreal\, QC\, H3S 1Z1\n \n\nWorkshop Title: How to Plan\, Conduct\, and Report Mixed Studies Reviews\nWorkshop Overview\nMixed studies reviews are becoming increasingly popular in health research for their ability to address complex phenomena and interventions. These reviews integrate qualitative\, quantitative\, and mixed methods studies\, offering a comprehensive perspective on healthcare topics.\nThis workshop will provide practical guidance on the latest advancements in the methodology of mixed studies reviews\, including their conceptual definition\, quality appraisal\, and data integration. Participants will gain valuable insights into best practices for planning\, conducting\, and reporting mixed studies reviews.\n \nKeynote Speaker\nQuan Nha Hong\, Ph.D.Quan Nha Hong is an assistant professor at the School of Rehabilitation of the Université de Montréal and a researcher at the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Rehabilitation of Greater Montreal (CRIR).  \n\n\nCredits \nThis activity is accredited by the Office for Continuing Professional Development\, School of Medicine\, McGill University\, which is accredited by the Committee on Accreditation of Canadian Medical Education (CACME) of which the Collège des médecins du Québec (CMQ) is a partner. \n\n\n  \n\n\nThis activity meets the certification criteria of the College of Family Physicians of Canada and has been approved for up to 5 Mainpro+® Certified Activity \n\n\n  \n\n\nMembers of the American Academy of Family Physicians are eligible to receive up to 5 prescribed credit hours for attendance at this meeting/event due to a reciprocal agreement with the College of Family Physicians of Canada \n\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nAt the conclusion of this activity\, participants will be able to:\n\n\nDistinguish systematic mixed studies reviews (SMSRs) from other literature reviews.\nDescribe and explain the different synthesis designs and methods for designing\, conducting and reporting SMSRs.\n\n\n\nRegistration\nSpots are limited! This in-person workshop has limited spots\, ensuring an interactive\, hands-on experience. Due to the limited capacity\, we encourage you to register as soon as possible to secure your spot. \nRegister here.\n \nThank you for your attention\, and we hope to see you there!\n
