Meta analysis is a widely used statistical technique for pooling diverse study results. Julia does not have a meta analysis package. The goal of this talk is to present the steps and usage of a meta analysis package in pure Julia that I have developed and is in pre-alpha stage. I will explain the steps and processes of implementing fixed-effects and random-effects meta-analysis in Julia and construction of several plotting functions and advanced methods that are unique features of this package.
