Prioritising evidence to guide and inform decision making
For 200 years, The Lancet has published scientific research that has driven progress and generated knowledge. Now, in a growing phase of anti-science, researchers play a more crucial role than ever in science communication.

We call for...

All sectors of society to have a responsibility to bridge the gap between knowledge and action—demanding and ensuring that evidence is used by policy makers to guide and inform their decision making
Policy makers, funders, and scientists to give greater recognition to the part played by research participants in advancing knowledge and understanding about health
