Here’s some more info: 

Title: Meta-Analysis in R

Date: Thursday, July 11th, 18:00 – 20:00 CEST (Rome, Berlin, Paris timezone) 

Speaker: Matthew B. Jané is a graduate student in quantitative psychology at the University of Connecticut. His interests involve data visualization and statistical methods for meta-analysis and psychometric measurement. He is affiliated with the Systematic Health Action Research Program where he is advised by Dr. Blair T. Johnson. 

Description: In this workshop, we will learn how to conduct meta-analysis in R using real data sets. We will first discuss how effect sizes such as standardized mean differences, correlations, and odds ratios are calculated. Then we will discuss three types of meta-analytic models (i.e., common, fixed, and random effects models) and how we can fit each model in R. Finally, we will visualize how study characteristics can moderate effect sizes with the help of meta-regression.
