Engagement in Research 101: Introduction to Engaging Patient & Community Partners in Research
March 13 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
Are you interested in learning about patient and community engagement and how it can benefit your research? Excited by the idea of engaging patient, community, or other partners in your research, but unsure about where to start? Want to know more about how to engage partners at different points throughout your study?
Engaging with patient and community partners who are impacted by your research can be instrumental to the success of your study. This online training will provide an overview of engagement in research, highlighting that engagement is not “all or nothing” or “one-size-fits-all”, but instead encompasses a wide variety of low touch to high touch approaches that could be right for your study.
The session will cover common myths/misconceptions about engagement in research, benefits of and key considerations for engaging patient and community partners in research, and initial steps/existing resources you can leverage to begin engaging partners in your research.
