Patient-oriented knowledge mobilizations: Shifting the dial
on knowledge creation and translation
This presentation will reflect upon the findings of two research studies exploring research partnerships within health research networks. We will draw upon the data collected from diverse stakeholders engaged in 10 Canadian research networks, identifying how perspectives of knowledge are shifting and how patients and family members are assuming increasingly important roles in the development and implementation of research. We will highlight opportunities for patient-oriented knowledge mobilization and the critical role of patients and the public in fostering research with local and global reach.
