Parkinson’s UK are offering any Parkinson’s researchers (basic and clinical) a free half-day Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) training session:
When: 9.30am-1pm, Thursday 20th April
Where: Cambridge University
This morning session will help researchers to understand:
- How to involve people and at what stage using case study examples
- The numerous different methods of involvement they can use
- Tips for communicating well with people they involve
This session will also give researchers an opportunity to plan involvement in their own research, and will include a networking lunch with people affected by Parkinson’s.
