Evidence-Based Veterinary Medicine Association
Non-profit organization
The Evidence-Based Veterinary Medicine Association (EBVMA) is an international, non-profit (501(c)(3)) professional organization founded with the mission of better organizing the emerging veterinary research, training, and practice of evidence-based veterinary medicine (EBVM)—the formal strategy to integrate the best critically designed and statistically evaluated research available combined with clinical expertise as well as the unique needs or wishes of each client in clinical practice. EBVM draws from and parallels the evidence-based medicine movement in human medicine.[1][2]

The EBVMA website asserts:
Evidence-based veterinary medicine is the formal strategy to integrate the best research evidence available combined with clinical expertise as well as the unique needs or wishes of each client in clinical practice. Much of this is based on results from research studies that have been critically-designed and statistically evaluated.
The EBVMA is based in Ridgeland, Mississippi, US, and was founded in 2004. Its counterpart in the United Kingdom is the Centre for Evidence-based Veterinary Medicine (CEVM) at the University of Nottingham.
