Funding and access to patients for remote PPI
8 April 2020
The NIHR Biomedical Research Centre at UCLH has established resources including funding and access to patients to help researchers continue involving patients and the public during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- The BRC has set up a network of patients who are happy to get involved remotely in inputting into research and who have already been given advice on using zoom and skype.
- Our bursary panel has agreed to put aside some money for researchers needing help with remote PPI costs. Possible use of money includes purchasing Zoom or other online platforms; design help with digital media to recruit and involve people; or any costs linked to forming new patient groups to input specifically into Covid-19 research.
- If you need help or tutorials, please contact us.
