Kay Dickersin discussed CUE's engagement in partnerships and advisory roles through participation on panels for clinical practice guidelines and conferences. CUE also provides input through testimonies and letters to organizations like IOM, Cochrane, and PCORI. Additionally, CUE served as a partner on numerous grant applications to PCORI and its member organizations applied independently for grants. Going forward, CUE aims to continue its clearinghouse functions and advisory roles, endorse relevant conferences, apply for new grants with partners, and explore educational opportunities, including further work with PCORI.
