In this commentary, we describe the exploratory process of catchment area change led by the Consortium's Office of Community Outreach and Engagement and new initiatives that followed that growth.

We recently questioned the utility of testing for proportional hazards in survival analysis. Here we expand on why the proportional hazards assumption is both implausible and unnecessary in most medical studies, particularly in randomized trials. We conclude that using survival analysis methods that do not rely on proportional hazards is typically the preferred course of action.
