We hold annual meetings to gather around like-minded researchers and clinicians in the field of evidence-based medicine. The ultimate aim is to improve patient care by communicating the most updated and significant advances in evidence-based health research and methodology, covering a wide array of topics in medicine from prevention, diagnosis and treatment.
