Abstract: Hamilton researcher Gord Guyatt has won an international prize for work that jurors say makes him the "father of evidence-based medicine."
The Berlin-based Einstein Foundation Award named Dr. Gordon Guyatt the winner of a (euro)200,000 prize - worth about C$280,000 - for his pioneering work promoting quality in medical research leading to better patient care.
Guyatt, distinguished professor of Health Research Methods, Evidence and Impact at McMaster University, develops guidelines that help doctors incorporate high-quality, up-to-date research into their treatment decisions so they don't have to rely solely on what a textbook says or the way something has always been done in the past.
