## Evidence Based Medicine Research Group (EBM)
**1\. Introduction**
Evidence based medicine is a stepping\-stone on the way to the medical research
achievements. We use an interdisciplinary approach including systematic review
and meta\-analysis, clinical research, and survey to help the medical
practitioners to diagnose, predict and make decision in several diseases. Being
a multinational group, we aim to attract more researchers to Ton Duc Thang
University to compete with the most prestigious groups all over the world. We
are working on several diverse medical fields including oncology, neurology,
infectious diseases, pediatrics, ophthalmology and cardiology etc..
**2\. Mission and vision**
The major missions of the group are:
1\. To assess the current state of research to identify key questions of hot
research topics in the field.
2\. To contribute to the field by exploring new knowledge. Reviewing the
literature to understand novel contributions and shortcomings of other
researchers.
3\. To explore the opportunities for multinational interdisciplinary
collaboration and pooled data resources.
4\. To train new generations of researchers in the best possible way.
5\. To publish high quality work in the most prestigious, top ranked journals to
spread the benefits of research achievement as much as possible.
6\. To develop new treatments by doing randomized clinical trials (RCTs).
**3\. Research topics**
By stating the main focus on evidence based medicine, we aim specifically at the
following topics
• Systematic review and meta\-analysis of health care interventions and risk
factors;
• Quality assessment of research methodology studies;
• Clinical research on diseases’ risk factors;
• Surveys on health care;
• Prediction of a number of new cases of Zika virus and other outbreaks to get
rid of its burden;
• RCTs to develop new treatments.
