Exploring the Feasibility of a Patient-Initiated Research Assistance Program in British Columbia
Friday, May 31, 2-3 p.m.
WebEx
PIRAP (Patient-Initiated Research Assistance Program) was a project that originated from the BC SUPPORT Unit Patient Council to explore the feasibility of supporting patient-initiated research. To accomplish this, the team conducted a literature review of patient-initiated research projects, followed by qualitative interviews with individuals who have experience working in patient-initiated research projects. This project was co-led by patient partners who were involved in each step of the project.
During this session, project team members will talk about what they found out about supporting patient-initiated research as well as their own experiences of working on a patient co-led project.
