Cochrane Neurological Network
The Multiple Sclerosis Group is actively collaborating with the Cochrane Neurological Network,  an entity of the Cochrane Collaboration that works with neurological Cochrane Review Groups to improve their productivity and communicate the results of their research to a worldwide neurological community. Over the last years the Multiple Sclerosis Group has organised with them several presentations though we both delivered information about the work of the Cochrane Collaboration and results of our systematic reviews.

Cochrane Consumer Network
The Multiple Sclerosis Group also collaborates with The Cochrane Consumer Network (CCNET) which is made up of fellow consumers who are committed to the philosophies of The Cochrane Collaboration and the importance of consumer participation in informed healthcare decision-making processes.  We both support consumers by enabling communication, training and guidance in providing a consumer perspective to Cochrane reviews and other activities within The Cochrane Collaboration.
