We‘re looking for patient partner stories and experiences!

Hi there – Jennifer here! We know everyone’s busy this time of year, so just a quick announcement!  We’re looking for some short contributions for an upcoming episode.  The one we’re working on examines some of the challenges of conducting participatory research in an academic or institutional setting.   So… if you’ve been involved in a participatory research project as a patient partner, we’d love to hear from you! We’re interested in your perspective. How was the experience for you? And how was it different or similar to other research projects? We’re also interested in whether there were any institutional or bureaucratic policies or processes that impeded the project in some way.

If you’re interested in being included in an upcoming episode, there are a few ways to contribute. Maybe the easiest way is to call in to our new listener phone line - the number is 647-812-2909.  Just have a listen to the instructions. You can re-record as needed, and just call back if you need a do-over.  You can also send us a written email, or record a voice memo and email it to us. The address is mattersofengagement@gmail.com. 

All of these details are also on our website – just click the Contact page at mattersofengagement.com

And hey, even if you don’t want to contribute to this episode, we always love feedback!  Please send us your comments on any episode, or suggest a topic.

Thanks for listening, and we’d love to hear from you.
