BC SUPPORT Unit | Registration now open for October patient-oriented research conference

Register today! More than 165 stakeholders have already registered for the BC SUPPORT Unit's second annual conference, called Putting Patients First: Lessons Learned for Patient-Oriented Research 2018 (or #PPF18). The conference schedule is now available here. Registration is free.

#PPF18 is an important event designed for members of four key stakeholder groups:

• Clinicians who improve health care through patient-oriented research; 
• Health system decision-makers who help implement health system change;
• Patients who get engaged and be heard; and
• Health researchers who get results with impact. 

As a BC AHSN stakeholder, you're encouraged to attend. We'll have a substantial presence at the conference. In addition to having a booth that includes representatives from all network components (BC SUPPORT Unit, Clinical Trials BC and Research Ethics BC), our CEO will be making opening remarks.
