Understanding Evidence
Posted on 3rd October 2016 by Selena Ryan-Vig
We all need to be able to make sense of evidence, whether we’re making decisions about treatments, or weighing up the latest health story to hit the headlines. We’re partnering with Cochrane UK to put the spotlight on common errors and misunderstandings with a new campaign, Understanding Evidence.
We want to bring together the ideas that underpin the way we think about evidence. We want to share resources and initiatives that can help with making sense of evidence, and we want to highlight opportunities to get involved with others with an interest in evidence.
Understanding Evidence launches with a special week of blogs from 4th October 2016 and ongoing blogs and content thereafter, all curated by Cochrane UK, Students 4 Best Evidence and other partners using #UnderstandingEvidence. Please join us on social media, share your ideas, and help us make sure that we challenge claims and think critically.

Unlike the rest of the content on Students Best Evidence, not all of the campaigns in this series will be written by students. However, we think it’s still important to publish this campaign on this website, as understanding evidence is at the heart of what Students 4 Best Evidence is about.
