PPI-Led Pump Priming Scheme
Oxford Cancer is committed to learning from patient experience and allowing people with experience of cancer to influence our research agenda. In our work with people affected by cancer, and learning from others who have done similar work elsewhere, we have identified issues that matter to people with blood cancers, colorectal cancer and oesophagogastric cancer.
We are introducing a Patient and Public Involvement (PPI)-Led Pump Priming Scheme to help translate these issues into research projects. The scheme will act as a ‘hub’ to connect the ideas and concerns of patients with our wider research network.
PPI will be at the heart of any research funded by the scheme and successful applicants will have the support and input of our experienced PPI community. Not only will the ‘hub’ enable research that matters to patients, but it will also enrich the PPI skills of successful applicants, making them more familiar with working with PPI representatives.
We are currently accepting expressions of interest and would love to hear from you if seek pump-prime funding of up to £10,000 for research in any of the areas listed below. To get in touch, please email the Oxford Cancer PPI team.
