What We Do

The Center for Systematic Reviews & Research Syntheses (CSRRS) offers fee-based services for any client whose needs are not met by the Texas A&M University Libraries' Evidence Review Service.

These are the guiding questions that the center seeks to answer through its research:

  1. How to improve methods of information retrieval while maintaining the quality of the review? This can reduce the amount of time and money to complete the review.
  2. How to apply the systematic review method to disciplines beyond health sciences? Systematic reviews have a long history in medicine and continue to grow in other fields such as education, engineering, and more.
  3. How to identify best practices for documenting, archiving, disseminating, and tracking review projects to increase societal impact? Following open science ideals will ensure the accessibility, reproducibility, and transparency of syntheses and increase research impact.
