Events

After close monitoring of the coronavirus pandemic and taking into consideration the well being of our delegates and speakers, the EBMLive organising committee have taken the decision to cancel the conference due to take place in Toronto July 2020.

They are working on strategies for an alternative EBMLive event and will update you as soon as possible. In the meantime EBMLive will review all submitted abstracts and publish a supplement in the BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine Journal.  All accepted abstracts will be taken over to EBMLive in Oxford July 2021.
