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

Prior to my cancer diagnosis I was a nurse clinician in pediatric infectious disease and involved in national immunization research projects. When I was unable to return to work post transplant, I realized that experience could be directed to patient advocacy and professional\u00a0education\u00a0and I became a patient partner with two disease based groups.<\/em><\/p>\n

I was drawn to CDTRP in 2018 when I became aware of their strong mandate for patient engagement at all levels of the research continuum. Since them I\u2019ve been constantly amazed at the range of opportunities available to PFD partners as we move forward with health care professionals to improve the journeys of\u00a0transplant\u00a0patient and their families.<\/em><\/p>\n

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

I think the greatest challenge\u00a0for\u00a0PI\u2019s\/trainees comes down to basic education\/communication that engenders trust if this type of relationship. Increasing their awareness of what PFD partners bring to\u00a0the\u00a0table by way of experience,\u00a0education and\u00a0the ability\u00a0to improve research grant application success cannot be understated. I would also like to see improved lateral communication\/support between PFD partners. The opportunity for knowledge translation on this level\u00a0is\u00a0huge\u00a0and at present a missed opportunity.<\/em><\/p>\n

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

I spent three years working in nursing stations in the\u00a0Arctic. Oh the stories \u2026..<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>
