Opportunity Purpose
The goal of this study is to determine the role of various risk factors in the progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to dementia. Caregivers’ and patients’ lived experiences and concerns will help to guide the research questions and study priorities, and will provide an invaluable perspective when it comes to interpreting the results of the study and how best to share the findings with the patient community.

What’s Involved
This opportunity will involve online meetings or phone calls with the graduate student responsible for conducting the study. Partners will be invited to share their experiences to help shape the research questions and analyses, and to assist in interpretation of the results. Partners will also be involved in advising on the creation of knowledge translation tools.

Recently, a PVN Patient Advisor asked healthcare partners, “What are we learning from patients, families, and others thus far during this pandemic?”. This is an excellent question and one to ask ourselves daily.
