Queer Eye for the PPI: Promoting LGBTQI+ voices at the research table

For years, researchers have gathered data from people with a lived experience of an issue, a condition, a disability or an illness. Now, thanks to a focus on PPI (Public and Patient Involvement), people are getting involved in the planning, design, delivery and dissemination of research. But what does all of this PPI mean for people from the LGBTQI+ community? When we come to the research table, are our voices heard, understood and valued?
Join us for a panel discussion exploring how we can bring a queer eye to PPI.
