'It's time we talk about patient engagement' EATRIS webinar

10 November 2023 - EATRIS is organising a webinar with the title 'It's time we talk about patient engagement' on 7 December 2023 at 12:30 CET. This webinar will serve as an introduction to researchers who are new to patient engagement and curious to learn more about good practices.

While academic researchers are gradually involving patients and citizens in their research, meaningful patient engagement practices are challenging to develop in academia for various reasons such as lack of human and financial resources, or limited awareness of the tools and services available to guide researchers in their patient engagement journey.
