Now Accepting Applications!
The CHILD-BRIGHT Network is proud to launch the third iteration of the Frank Gavin Patient Engagement Leadership Award, which recognizes exceptional patient engagement leadership in pediatric brain-based disability research. Established in 2021, the award was named in honour of Frank Gavin, our former Director of Citizen Engagement, for his vital contributions to the network’s impressive growth as a SPOR entity.
This year, we are pleased to announce that we will be granting a Frank Gavin award to not one, but two patient-partners: a parent, caregiver, or family member with lived experience, as well as a youth or former pediatric patient with lived experience.
Do you know a patient-partner with considerable experience participating in patient-oriented research activities, and with proven leadership in patient engagement? Would you like to put your own name forward? We’re accepting nominations as of today!
Nominations are due by March 28, 2024
