QMed’s Workshops

QMed conducted 244 live workshops from April 2008 till January 2020. And soon after the Covid pandemic hit the world, thanks to which live workshops were suspended for a couple of years 

In June 2020 we launched our courses online at – www.qmedcourses.in

QMedCourses is a combination of: 

  1. An independent learning resource through its six courses
  2. Course material for those who attend our live workshops
  3. A revision tool – any of the videos serves as a revision tool, if one forgets any of the learning
  4. A reference library – with the pool of resources in the section “Resources for you”
  5. Mini webinar sessions for interactions
  6. Consulting / mentoring sessions with QMed – by booking an appointment. Especially useful for those wanting to create good search strategies for systematic / scoping reviews

 From April 2022, we once again resumed our live workshops.

  • Our most popular workshops are Mastering PubMed, and Reference Management with Zotero.
  • We also can conduct Advanced workshops – like Advanced Literature Searches for Authors of Systematic Reviews, and more.
  • We have conducted nearly 280 live workshops so far.
