Advancing Public &
Patient Involvement
in health & social
care research across
the island of Ireland
The PPI Ignite Network brings together eleven partner universities and ten all-island organisations, coordinated by a Central Office at RCSI, so that patients, carers and the public help shape the research that affects them.
Research done with the
public, not just about them
Public and patient involvement means patients, carers and members of the public are partners in research. They help decide what gets studied, shape how it is done and make sure the results reach the people who need them.
