The IOM employs a rigorous process to conduct its work, which includes:
1. Committee Formation: The IOM forms committees composed of experts in relevant fields. These committees are responsible for conducting studies and producing reports.
2. Literature Review: The committees conduct extensive reviews of existing scientific literature to gather evidence on the topic under study.
3. Stakeholder Engagement: The IOM engages with stakeholders, including policymakers, healthcare providers, and the public, to gather diverse perspectives and ensure the relevance of its recommendations.
4. Report Development: Based on the evidence gathered, the committees develop detailed reports that include findings, conclusions, and recommendations.
5. Dissemination: The IOM disseminates its reports to the public, policymakers, and the scientific community to inform decision-making and guide public health interventions.
