Friday, Sept. 6th, afternoon
This 2-hour workshop on the importance of Public and Patient Involvement (PPI) in the field of in silico medicine aims to enhance the understanding of critical concepts among the research community, as well as the general public.
When designed through extensive interdisciplinary collaboration, PPI can significantly enhance research and innovation (R&I). This approach ensures that outcomes and products are better aligned with the needs, concerns, and expectations of the society they are designed to benefit.
The workshop will focus on three key objectives: increasing the general awareness of key concepts like PPI, co-creation, and in silico medicine, while highlighting the significant impact PPI can have on research and innovation (R&I) through real-life examples and testimonies of successful co-creation, and encouraging the participants to reflect on effective methods for involving patients in their research and innovation process.
By the end of this hands-on session, attendees will gain valuable insights into the benefits of PPI and acquire the practical tools for meaningful patient engagement.
