“Systematic reviews are incredibly important for our stakeholders, and they encourage evidence-based practice. It's been great to oversee our Systematic Review Program through the years, and even greater to see it keep going. I hope to continue developing research methods for conducting systematic reviews and maintaining the high quality of our research operations.” – Emma Irvin
