Statistics is important in medical research but there are not many opportunities for PPIE contributors to engage with statisticians or learn about the statistical aspects of medical research. PPIE contributors often remain uncertain of what statistics is and the role of a statistician. We want to change that – the ‘PPIE Meets Statistics Training Event’ run by our Cancer group and PPI colleagues was the first step towards this goal.

Bringing together statisticians and patient and public contributors: our first PPIE Meets Statistics Training Event
