What difference does public involvement make to our research in the East of England? Come and find out!

Join us for this free in-person event for members of the public, carers, patients and research staff. The showcase is part of NIHR20, celebrating 20 years of life-changing health and social care from NIHR and the impact that public involvement has had on research in the East of England.

Researchers at NIHR Biomedical Research Centre (BRC): Cambridge along with other the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) infrastructures within the East of England: Applied Research Collaboration, BioResource, Regional Research Delivery Network, HealthTech Research Centre in Brain Injury, Clinical Research Facilities from Norwich and Cambridge and Blood and Transplant Research Unit in Donor Health and other BRC colleagues Cambridge Stem Cell Institute, Institute of Metabolic Science - Metabolic Research Laboratories and the Clinical School of Medicine, University of Cambridge are hosting a joint showcase of patient and public involvement (PPI) in health research across the East of England.

NIHR has championed a system where people, communities and professionals shape outcomes. We are pioneers in patient and public involvement (PPI), ensuring that people from all backgrounds and communities actively shape research agendas and priorities.

The showcase will have live talks, and a poster-and-networking session with light lunch and refreshments.

Listen to researchers talk about their work and browse their posters - and find out how patient and public involvement is crucial to their work.

If you are interested in finding out more about health research and how the public has helped make a difference to research, this event is for you. Network with researchers and the public highlighting the valuable work that is going on in the community.
