Two faculty members – Jim Wright, professor in the Department of Anesthesiology, Pharmacology and Therapeutics, and Stuart MacLeod, professor in the Department of Pediatrics – were invited to Ottawa’s Rideau Hall for the awarding of the Knowledge Translation Award from the Canadian Institute of Health Research to the Canadian Cochrane Centre.
Wright is coordinating editor of the Cochrane Hypertension Group, one of 52 review groups in the Cochrane Collaboration, an international network of more than 31,000 people from over 120 countries. MacLeod is a member of the Canadian Cochrane Centre’s Advisory Board. Both are noted authorities in using population-based approaches to study health outcomes and health economics to support decision-making around drug therapy. For more information, click here.
