Abstract
Statistical Meta-Analysis (SMA) deals with developing valid statistical methods which
can be used to combine results from several independent studies all with a common
goal. Applications of SMA abound in the literature. In this talk I will present a
variety of scenarios requiring SMA and discuss one application in detail, which is
the celebrated common mean problem based on samples from independent normal populations
with unequal and unknown variances.
