New Resource for Investigators: CTSI Patient Advisory Council for Research
The CTSI has a newly formed Patient Advisory Council for Research. Facilitated by the Recruitment and Retention Unit, the council consists of 16 patients from NYU Langone Health who will be attending meetings every other month to give feedback on research ideas, acceptability and feasibility of studies from a patient perspective, and how best to advertise studies. Council members were randomly selected from Epic and invited to join the council via the MyChart portal. All council members were individually screened via a telephone interview, and then participated in a group interview and mock study. Council members vary by age, race, gender and health conditions; they are also reimbursed for their time and travel.
This newly formed council may be particularly helpful in providing feedback and patient voices on research projects that are in early planning stages. All meetings of the Patient Advisory Council for Research will be held on a Wednesday from 5-7pm at TRB. Study teams will need to be available during this time if they would like to utilize the Patient Advisory Council for Research.
For more information please contact Rachel Thornton or by phone at 646-501-2777.
