The SPIRIT–CONSORT Group

The SPIRIT–CONSORT Group is an international and eclectic group, comprising trialists, methodologists, journal editors and most recently patient representatives. Just as the SPIRIT and CONSORT Statements are tools that evolve in response to the emerging evidence, the membership of the SPIRIT–CONSORT Group is dynamic, evolving in response to emerging projects and needed expertise.
