ASA held its annual SCARE meeting on 29 November 2024. The theme was ‘sharing and using our evidence well’.
The conference provided an opportunity to hear from researchers and academics about advice delivery, need and related system studies.
Support from the Nuffield Foundation enabled us to run an in-person event at Quinn Emanuel, London. This project has been funded by the Nuffield Foundation, but the views expressed are those of the authors and not necessarily the Foundation.
The conference report (PDF) gives a summary of the event and emerging themes.
