Creating a review under the UC Davis license

When creating a new review, you'll have the option to use your personal account license, or the UC Davis institutional license.

Note that if a review is created under the institutional license, it will be visible to the administrators of the UC Davis Covidence license.

When creating reviews under the UC Davis Covidence license, you may manage an unlimited number of reviews, and can invite additional reviewers regardless of their affiliation.

Once you have an account set up under the UC Davis Covidence license, you can access Covidence directly by going to covidence.org and logging in.
