Just a few places left on PPI workshop for researchers
9 July 2012
There are just a few places left on the Joint Research Office 1-day workshop on 12 July on patient and public involvement (PPI) in biomedical research.
The
workshop is for UCL and UCLH biomedical researchers and provides a
practical and realistic introduction to the different ways patients and
the public can be actively involved in the research process.
Sessions cover the different stages in which patients can be involved, identifying and addressing barriers to PPI, the kinds of support researchers can access, and how to make sure PPI works for everyone.
Researchers will have the opportunity to work on their own PPI plans. Follow-up workshops are planned for the autumn covering issues such as setting up a patient forum and working with charities and patient organisations.
