In designing the study questions, the EPC consulted several Stakeholders who represent the end-users of research. The EPC sought Stakeholder input on the priority areas for research and synthesis. Stakeholders are not involved in the analysis of the evidence or the writing of the report. Therefore, in the end, study questions, design, methodological approaches, and/or conclusions do not necessarily represent the views of individual Stakeholders.

All Stakeholders must disclose any financial conflicts of interest greater than $5,000 and any other relevant business or professional conflicts of interest. Because of their role as end-users, individuals with potential conflicts may be retained. The Task Order Officer (TOO) and the EPC work to balance, manage, or mitigate any conflicts of interest.
