WiserAD at The AAAPC 2022 Annual Research Conference

The WiserAD Trial team recently made a jam-packed appearance at the AAAPC 2022 Annual Research Conference with 3 exciting new research poster presentations and an oral presentation from PhD candidate Amy Coe.

Amy later presented her published scoping review on Deprescribing intervention activities mapped to guiding principles for use in general practice <doi:10.1136/bmjopen-2021-052547>.
