North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) 51st Annual Meeting

A group of UL researchers and associated community partners will participate at the 51st Annual Meeting of the North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) this Autumn in San Francisco, USA. Four unit members, three of community partners, and one PhD candidate will be in attendance, running four conference workshops – all on aspects of participatory research, presenting two posters on completed research, as well as chairing the CASFM Participatory Health Research Working Group (Prof Anne MacFarlane) and chairing the Committee on Advancing the Science of Family Medicine (Ass. Prof. Jon Salsberg).

The NAPCRG Annual Meeting is the largest primary care research meeting of the world. This event is pivotal to enhancing the international impact and disseminating the outcomes of the PPI Ignite Network.
