Audience: Our priority audience is patient partners across different levels of expertise but all members of the research team are invited to attend. This webinar series is disease agnostic, meaning the topics will not be specific to any disease or body system.

Background: The webinar series is all about patient engagement in health research, also known as patient and public involvement (in the UK) or consumer involvement (in Australia). 'Patient engagement’ in health research is where patients are research team members. This is different from volunteering to be a research participant where you might help advance research or healthcare, but a research participant generally does not give input into the research study itself.

Information about CIHR-IMHA PERA: CIHR-IMHA is the Canadian Institutes for Health Research Institute of Musculoskeletal Health and Arthritis. The current PERA (Patient Engagement in Research Ambassadors) meet virtually, provide insights and perspectives from their own lived experiences and those from their communities to help IMHA achieve its goals and priorities.
