Population Health Modelling Consensus Reporting Network for Noncommunicable Diseases (POPCORN-NCD)
Developing an internationally agreed-upon reporting guideline for studies that model noncommunicable diseases.
We’re developing POPCORN, a new reporting guideline to improve the consistency and transparency of research using simulation models that address noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) like heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Following the EQUATOR methods, will provide standardised guidance to help researchers report their models transparently, enabling policymakers and the public to better understand and trust model-based evidence (EQUATOR registration).
