Humanitas University employee; I am co-chair of the GRADE Working Group and the Guidelines International Board of Trustees (2023-2025). I continue to contribute to the development of GRADEpro which is GRADE’s official product to apply and implement the GRADE approach; as such I have an interest that GRADEpro is further developed as GRADE and guideline methodology advances. GRADEpro is programmed by EvidencePrime and I provide advice to EvidencePrime. I have not received any payments from EvidencePrime which is owned in part by McMaster University and EvidencePrime has received funding from McMaster University (through research grants and contracts) to do the programming on GRADEpro but GRADEpro is only one of several products EvidencePrime produces.
I am creator and Head of the steering committee for the new G-I-N-McMaster Guideline Credentialing and Certification Program: INGUIDE.
