🙋‍♀️Fellow @cochranecollab fans and evidence synthesis nerds - I've just found a connection that I am totally vibing on... history, supportive women, symbolism... Cochrane's logo is basically a shoutout to #WomeninSTEM 🤯 Let's dig in...

@cochranecollab has been around for 30 years. It's logo is very symbolic of the impact that #SystematicReviews can have on #healthcare

That original review was led by Patricia Crowley. She wrote the first unstructured review in 1980. It was Anne Anderson who encouraged her to use it as a basis for an early meta-analysis.

Whhhhhat?!?!? 🤯🤯🤯🤯 I had no clue about the Anne Anderson and logo review connection!
So why is this so neat? ⤵️⬇️⬇️

Who is #AnneAnderson?
Please sit down and let me #fangirl for a bit about her.
She is the original evidence-based #healthcare #bossbabe
Her Wiki page: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_Ande…

Check out this #AnneAnderson artwork by @AnnaDohertyIllu - Anne is included in the @LifeologyApp historic #STEAM Heros card deck here: app.us.lifeology.io/viewer/lifeolo…

Anne Anderson is such a legend that you can get some @cochranecollab merch with her on it -- I got the diversity mug! store.cochrane.org/collections/an…

Every year @cochranecollab gives out an award in Anne Anderson's name to honour someone who contributed to women’s visibility and participation in Cochrane’s leadership...then the winner passes the prize $ on to someone else. 💜Which is just the most lovely thing ever. 💜

Nominations for the Anne Anderson Award open on Monday events.cochrane.org/colloquium-202…

💜I love the symbolism behind the @cochranecollab logo
💜I am a huge fan girl Anne Anderson and how the award works.
🫶 Finding the logo/Anne Anderson connection just made my #scicomm day. 🤯
