FACULTY AFFILIATIONS
CONTENT VALIDATION AND DISCLOSURES Research To Practice is committed to providing its participants with high-quality, unbiased and state-of-the-art education. We assess potential conflicts of interest with faculty, planners and managers of CME activities. Real or apparent conflicts of interest are identified and resolved by a peer review content validation process. The content of each activity is reviewed by both a member of the scientific staff and an external independent reviewer for fair balance, scientific objectivity of studies referenced and patient care recommendations.
