Cochrane Malaysia is inviting representatives from Patient Support Groups in Malaysia to a round-table discussion on getting involved in designing research.
We would also like to listen to your views to understand better what is needed by patient support groups in their mission of empowering patients and families supported by the groups. These may include understanding research evidence, where to find reliable information and how Cochrane Malaysia can help.
On that day, we have also invited a special speaker, Dr Jack Nunn, to share about patient and public involvement in research.
Dr Jack Nunn is the Co-Chair of the Cochrane Patient and Public Involvement Executive. He is also is the founder and Director of the charity ‘Science for All’, Co-Chair of Citizen Science and Open Science Community of Practice, a member of the ‘Standardised Data on Initiatives (STARDIT)’ Steering Committee, and a member of the Australian Medical Research Advisory Board.
He has worked for over 15 years to develop, report on, and evaluate equitable and ethical ways for people to get involved in all aspects of research and science across multiple disciplines.
Dr Jack is passionate about evidence-informed ways of involving people. He is an investigator on multiple research projects and has worked for charities and universities in multiple countries. He continues to support the public in shaping future research and science.
