-At the beginning of 2022, I held an open workshop on meta-analysis with R (as part of the [[https://www.eshackathon.org/events/2022-01-ESMARConf2022.html|Evidence Synthesis & Meta-Analysis in R Conference]]). More details about the workshop can be found [[https://www.wvbauer.com/doku.php/workshop_ma_esmarconf|here]]. The materials from the workshop can be found [[https://github.com/wviechtb/esmarconf2022_workshop|here]]. The scripts from this workshop are heavily annotated and provide a pretty structured and thorough introduction to the use of the metafor package. +At the beginning of 2022, I held an open workshop on meta-analysis with R (as part of the [[https://www.eshackathon.org/events/2022-01-ESMARConf2022.html|Evidence Synthesis & Meta-Analysis in R Conference]]).
