> The growing popularity of qualitative research has not so far led  
> to the systematic cumulation of findings.  The workshop will  
> explore the synthesis of qualitative research, drawing on the meta  
> ethnography technique developed by Noblit and Hare (1988).
>
> The workshop will be based around 4 papers which will be used to  
> identify key concepts and begin the process of 'reciprocal  
> translation' - comparing and developing the analytical concepts.   
> The workshop will then explore the next step of using mapping and  
> charting techniques to display and reconsider the emerging  
> findings.  The final part of the workshop will consider different  
> approaches to presentation of the results of synthesis and provide  
> an opportunity to reflect on the process of synthesis.
>
> Nicky Britten is Professor of Applied Health Care Research at  
> Peninsula Medical School and Catherine Pope is Reader in Health  
> Services Research at the University of Southampton.  They  have  
> been involved in a variety of research synthesis projects in the  
> past five years including meta ethnographies of the experience of  
> diabetes, medicine taking and help seeking for cancer.
>
> Target Audience: You will need to have some experience of  
> undertaking qualitative research,  although no prior experience of  
> synthesis or systematic reviewing is necessary. The workshop is   
> open to postgraduate students but it is not designed as an
