Campus investigators are encouraged to attend Friday’s internal medicine grand rounds on comparative effectiveness research (CER).<\/p>\n

The Institute of Medicine defines CER as investigations that compare the benefit and harm of alternative methods used to prevent, diagnose, treat or monitor a health condition or improve the delivery of care. <\/p>\n

In simpler terms, CER aims to find out what treatment or approach works best for which persons and under what circumstances.<\/p>\n

When:<\/B> Noon<\/p>\n

Where:<\/B> Durham Research Center Auditorium<\/p>\n

Who:<\/B> Robert Ratner, M.D., Georgetown University Medical School and Senior Research Scientist at the MedStar Health Research Institute in Washington, will present “Comparative Effectiveness Research: How is it Different?” <\/p>\n

Dr. Ratner recently served as the study director for the Institute of Medicine Comparative Effectiveness Research Priorities Committee. <\/p>\n

Why:<\/B> Comparative effectiveness research recently has gained momentum as a focus of the health care community. Funding for comparative effectiveness research was included in the health care reform legislation.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
