 This series is based on the work and vision of many clinicians, researchers, and librarians throughout the world who are continually evolving and disseminating the principles of EBM. We are particularly grateful to Gordon Guyatt, Deborah Cook, and the other faculty and tutors of the EBM teaching workshops at McMaster University for their encouragement and guidance. We also acknowledge a growing cadre of physicians and educators who, as members of the EBEM Task Force, helped inaugurate this series: Michael D Brown, MD; Carey D Chisholm, MD; William H Cordell, MD; Marc H Gorelick, MD; Stephen R Hayden, MD; Jeffrey S Jones, MD; Roger J Lewis, MD, PhD; Stephen Lloyd, MD, MPH; Thomas McGinn, MD; Stephen R Pitts, MD, MPH; S Chris Pappas, MD; Brian H Rowe, MD, MSc; Robert L Wears, MD, MS; and Stuart Weiss, MD. The Annals editors also congratulate Peter Wyer, MD, and Harold Osborn, MD, who, over the past 16 months, diligently worked to help design and implement this series and now serve as the EBEM series decision editors. Acknowledgment is also due Annals Director Margaret Levene for her invaluable assistance and creativity in helping design the format of this series.
