Funded Activity Summary

Doctors rely on clinical trials comparing the safety and efficacy of cardiovascular treatments but are often unable to find or trust the information they seek because of problems in evidence translation. This project will examine the networks of collaboration amongst researchers and their research to identify the source of these problems. The research will be used to identify where to intervene in the process, in turn helping doctors to make safe and cost-effective decisions for their patients.
