About Dr. Shaifali Sandal<\/strong><\/h5>\n
What inspired you to join CDTRP\u2019s PFD Partnership Platform as a co-lead?<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I wanted to be more involved in the patient advocacy initiatives of this platform and make a meaningful contribution to the transplant community. Working with patient\u00a0 partners is an enriching and learning opportunity that helps me become a better researcher and clinician.<\/em><\/p>\n

What impact do you hope to make in strengthening partnerships between PFDs and PIs\/Trainees?<\/strong><\/h6>\n

I want to create a checklist to better guide researchers on how to meaningfully integrate patient partners in their studies. I also particularly want to identify ways to better integrate PFDs from different races and ethnicities into the program’s ongoing initiatives.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Fun fact about yourself<\/strong><\/h6>\n

The best Indian food in Montreal is my kitchen.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
