Evidence Live 2017

Evidence Live is a partnership between The BMJ and the Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine in the University of Oxford’s Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences.
This meeting combines debate on the latest issues with education and practical skills development; a community coming together for a conference and evidence-based workshops where international thinkers share ideas to improve healthcare. We seek answers to the question: how can we transform healthcare for the better?

Evidence Live 2017 is a smaller symposium across two days focussing on EBM 2.0 Offering a platform for you to orchestrate change in national and global health care systems, by sharing your contribution and ideas for better evidence for better healthcare.
