  • Determine the feasibility of a symposium to increase community and patient engagement in research (CPER) in multiple networks, including community members, patient-centered teams, and academic scientists at a meeting.
  • Use the symposium to ascertain strategic areas of focus to increase CPER at a national level 
  • Develop proceedings to describe best practices for disseminating and implementing CPER over multiple dissemination platforms including the conference setting. 

Members of MWRN and partners will attend 2 regional workshops in Phoenix, Arizona and Jacksonville, Florida. During the 2 short regional workshops, the team will determine the focus of the symposium to take place in 2018.
