*CANCELLED* Research Seminar: Patient Engagement in Primary Health Care Research: Practical Applications and Challenges

The McGill Department of Family Medicine presents “Patient Engagement in Primary Health Care Research: Practical Applications and Challenges” by Anne Marie Chomat MD PhD MPH.

Dr. Chomat is a post-doctoral Health Systems Impact Fellow in Participatory Research at McGill (PRAM) in the Department of Family Medicine. Her current transdisciplinary research, funded by Grand Challenges Canada, a GCC Transition-to-Scale award, and a Gates Grand Challenges Explorations, addresses maternal and child outcomes of a community-based, participatory group psychosocial intervention with Maya women, men, youth and elders in the Western Highlands of Guatemala. She leads the McGill’s researcher-patient dyad funded by RUIS in Quebec and she convenes the McGill Patient Engagement Network involving over a dozen clinical and research teams across the University. She will outline current controversies in patient engagement and address some major challenges of this field, grounded with case examples. Her practical and pragmatic approach makes patient engagement accessible for clinicians and researchers alike.
