Working in Partnership with Patients and Communities Forum’s Letter Published in BMJ

Posted on: Tuesday 29 July 2025

FPM is excited to share that our Working in Partnership with Patients and Communities Forum has had a letter published in the British Medical Journal (BMJ).

The letter responds to a recently published article about patient and public involvement (PPI) in research reporting.

"We call on all researchers - whether in the commercial or public sectors - to commit to embedding PPI at all stages of research including research publication. Moreover, when patients have been involved throughout a study, their role should extend beyond acknowledgements to co-authorship, where appropriate."

 

One of the challenges of applying PPI guidance is knowing what exists and where to find resources when you need them. This is why the Forum have collated some of the best resources known to them, which they believe will be of use to FPM members. Click the link below to find out more!
