History of the Journal

The journal was founded in 2006 by Drs Pierre Pluye, Roland Grad and Laura Shea who saw the need to promote the academic works of Family Medicine faculty and graduate students.

Health Evidence: The following is a web site designed to provide quality research evidence to public health decision makers, saving you time by searching, screening, and rating the systematic review evidence to compile it in a free, searchable online registry: . Findings of a research project funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research demonstrated a need for a reliable source of review evidence that decision makers in public health could access and use easily. You can read more about studies and ongoing research elsewhere on the site and you can also read more about the process that each review must pass through before being posted to health-evidence.ca.

Drs. Eddy Lang and Roland Grad created a web page for quicker access to resources for primary health care. On this page you will find many links to the "best" of the medical Internet.
