Learning objectives:

The term Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) in Research is commonly referred to and is considered a key component of research success (from research idea & study design to implementation & reporting). Research that reflects the needs and views of the patients, the public and carers is more likely to produce results that can be used to improve health and social care. Certainly, PPI is a key organisational goal of, for example, the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR), who define public involvement in research as "research being carried out ‘with' or ‘by' members of the public rather than ‘to', ‘about' or ‘for' them".
This session will build on session 1 (18.06.19) and the aims are for attendees to:
1. Develop some best practice principles for how and when to involve patients & public;
2. Discuss how to write a Plan English Summary for a NIHR funding application: top tips;
3. Discuss examples of best practice, including a researcher's perspective of engaging PPI successfully throughout the research delivery cycle;
4. Consider ethical issues in PPI;
5. Be introduced to some innovative approaches in PPI.
