PxP 2024 Conference (For Patients, By Patients)
September 10 @ 8:00 am - September 12 @ 5:00 pm
Standing for ‘For Patients, By Patients’, PxP 2024 is entirely led by an international team of patient and public partners and is a Patients Included™ event. Our purpose is to share resources, mentorship and community with patient partners and others involved in health research. Ultimately, our goal is partnering to make research stronger.
This free, virtual event aims to bring you a wealth of knowledge, skills and resources on patient engagement in health research. Patient engagement in health research, also known as patient and public involvement (in the UK) or consumer involvement (in Australia). ‘Patient engagement’ in health research is where patients are research team members. This is different from volunteering to be a research participant where you might help advance research or healthcare, but a research participant generally does not give input into the research study itself. Whatever language you prefer, we warmly welcome everyone to attend.
