Collaboration and Involvement

Considering the points below will also assist in guiding your abstract submission;
What Collaboration and Involvement in research looks like?
It means working with organisations, groups, people with lived experience, consumers and/or community to help define or prioritise what you research, and then involving these key stakeholders and people in the research project and translation. Your connection and interactions have changed and influenced what you research, who you involve and how you share the research outcomes.
What Collaboration and Involvement does not look like?
Speaking to patients or interviewing people to collect data or participants, or giving a presentation on your research is not collaboration or involvement. These interactions have not altered what you choose to research, who you work with, or how you translate it.
All successful abstracts will be considered for a sponsored WAHTN Collaboration and Involvement Poster Award.
