The James Lind Alliance is holding its annual meeting on Saturday 3rd December at the Royal Society of Medicine in London between 10 am and 4 pm.  The cost is £35 including lunch, all refreshments and conference materials.

The Alliance say: "The James Lind Alliance is about partnerships of clinicians and patients identifying and prioritising treatment uncertainties together.  We would like to share our experiences of the first full year of activity, the highs, the lows, comparing this with other groups who actively engage patients/carers and the public in research priorities.

There will be a demonstration of the new Database of Uncertainties about the Effects of Treatments (DUETs), which aims to comprehensively capture questions of uncertainty expressed by clinicians and patients."
