Objectives

OMERACT Patient Research Partners (PRP) play a vital role in patient-centered research by sharing their lived experiences with rheumatic conditions. The OMERACT PRP network enhances the effective participation of all PRPs involved in the OMERACT process, ultimately aiming to improve rheumatology outcomes.

Objectives

To maintain OMERACT's leading role in patient-centered research focused on rheumatology outcomes, we aim to support sustainable partnerships between researchers and OMERACT PRPs by promoting the full involvement of PRPs in OMERACT working groups. Additionally, we seek to strengthen the roles and skills of PRPs by providing them with support and education. Our goal is to create a literate and motivated resource for OMERACT research and knowledge transfer activities.

I understand that OMERACT PRP is crucial for researchers focusing on rheumatology outcomes, but from the patient's perspective, what truly matters is how we achieve patient-centered research. So, how do we meet in the middle? (Patient, Canada)
