RUMC Student's Association worked with Cochrane Malaysia to organize a message board contest for students and staff to put up their opinionsthoughts or personal experiences on "What does Evidence-based Medicine mean to you?"
The winner of the contest was Omar Aziz Azman, a 3rd year medical student (Class of 2023).
"The judges were unanimous. They commented that they liked the way that Omar’s message had included that, in practicing EBHC we need to evaluate the strength of the evidence. The pandemic has really highlighted this need. We all need to understand both certainty and uncertainty of evidence." — Prof Jacqueline
