CCBIONEUR910, Patient and Public Involvement in Medical and Health Research, November 30 – December 2, 2022.

We are happy to invite you to the coming CCBIO/Neuro-SysMed course: CCBIONEUR910, Patient and Public Involvement in Medical and Health Research, November 30 – December 2, 2022.

The course aims to inspire increased user participation in research trials and will present methods on how to involve user representatives. This is highly relevant to all biomedical research fields, and Patient and Public Involvement is documented to positively impact the relevance and efficacy in medical research.

Learn:

  • How patient and public involvement influence medical research, the conduct of clinical studies and the application of research results.
  • About the researcher’s responsibility for patient and public involvement to be integrated into the entire process in a clinical research project.
  • What role of user organizations and local user committees may have in your work.
  • To communicate research findings to patients and the public.
  • To discuss with users how their perspectives can contribute to democratization and quality improvement in research projects.
  • To incorporate input from users into your research project.
  • To assess and convey the added value of patient and public involvement and initiate productive user involvement in your research projects.
