SUMMARY:NATIONWIDE MDS ZOOM CAFÉ – 25/06/2021
DESCRIPTION:The Oxford Blood Group is offering an enriching two-part online event to take place on March this year. \nThe event is a ‘research priority setting’ workshop and will bring together people with experience of MDS\, to discuss what should be the top priorities for MDS research. \nThere is plenty of evidence to reveal that the people who make decisions about medical research do not always understand what matters most to the people who live with the condition in question \nThe consequences of this are potentially serious. Research is used to drive treatments and policy making\, but if it neglects to address patients’ concerns\, then the policy making will neglect these issues too. \n\n\n			\n		\n			\n			Please contact Dr Catriona Gilmour for more information		\n			\n	\n\n\n	HOW DOES IT WORK?\nThe participants involved will reflect on their own experience: what questions matter most? What do you think research has neglected? What questions need answers? The responses and thoughts will be then translated into a series of research questions\, to be shared with clinical colleagues and MDS experts. \nThis is an exercise with real potential to make the patient voice heard in medical research and we strongly recommend you to take part! \nYou should attend both meetings\, as the whole process will be split between the two dates. It will be run by professional facilitators\, and will be social and fun as well as meaningful. \n\nMarch 15\, 2021 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM\nMarch 22\, 2021 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM\n\nIf you'd like to join the events\, or need further information\, please contact Dr Catriona Gilmour Hamilton\, Haematology Quality Manager: Patient Experience and Engagement\, Oxford Blood Group PPI Co-ordinator at OxfordBloodGroup@ouh.nhs.uk. Places are limited.

DESCRIPTION:The Oxford Blood Group is offering an enriching two-part online event to take place on March this year. \nThe event is a ‘research priority setting’ workshop and will bring together people with experience of MDS\, to discuss what should be the top priorities for MDS research. \nThere is plenty of evidence to reveal that the people who make decisions about medical research do not always understand what matters most to the people who live with the condition in question \nThe consequences of this are potentially serious. Research is used to drive treatments and policy making\, but if it neglects to address patients’ concerns\, then the policy making will neglect these issues too. \n\n\n			\n		\n			\n			Please contact Dr Catriona Gilmour for more information		\n			\n	\n\n\n	HOW DOES IT WORK?\nThe participants involved will reflect on their own experience: what questions matter most? What do you think research has neglected? What questions need answers? The responses and thoughts will be then translated into a series of research questions\, to be shared with clinical colleagues and MDS experts. \nThis is an exercise with real potential to make the patient voice heard in medical research and we strongly recommend you to take part! \nYou should attend both meetings\, as the whole process will be split between the two dates. It will be run by professional facilitators\, and will be social and fun as well as meaningful. \n\nMarch 15\, 2021 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM\nMarch 22\, 2021 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM\n\nIf you'd like to join the events\, or need further information\, please contact Dr Catriona Gilmour Hamilton\, Haematology Quality Manager: Patient Experience and Engagement\, Oxford Blood Group PPI Co-ordinator at OxfordBloodGroup@ouh.nhs.uk.
