ADA Evidence Analysis Project - Info Due

ADA is seeking experts for several new evidence analysis projects:
- Pre-diabetes
- Nutrition Across the Spectrum of Aging (referring to older adults)
- The Impact of Fluoride on Health
- Non-nutritive Sweeteners
These projects will focus on answering pertinent questions using ADA’s systematic evidence analysis process. Some of the workgroup responsibilities are:
- Participate in teleconferences (~one or two per month) and respond to emails over approximately 12-24 months (depending on the project)
- Finalize questions for evidence analysis on the topic
- Working with trained evidence analysts, review and approve evidence-based summaries and conclusion statements
- Rate conclusions based on an evidence grading scale
- Review, finalize and approve the evidence-based information for publication on the Evidence Analysis Library (www.adaevidencelibrary.com)
This is an excellent professional growth opportunity and a way to benefit the dietetics profession!
