Independent, reliable
The Cochrane Collaboration is a global network of dedicated volunteers, supported by a small staff. We rely on grants and donations (see our funders), and don't accept conflicted funding. You can help too. Work with us or help financially or be a consumer representative in the Consumer Network (ccnet)
