Consumer Advisory Group
The CRE-PF Consumer Advisory Group (CAG) provides input on a variety of issues and topics relating to pulmonary fibrosis research.
These areas include:
- development of research questions, research design and choice of patient-relevant outcomes, review of patient-facing research materials such as flyers and consent forms, interpretation of results, and promotion of findings
- support of CRE-PF grant processes to provide consumer input on the research process
- priority areas for and consumer participation in pulmonary fibrosis research
- researcher education and training.
CRE-PF CAG members have been trained to provide input with various aspects of research. They make an invaluable contribution to all that we do! The group is co-chaired by Consumer Tania Hyde and CRE-PF Chief Investigator Prof Anne Holland.
