How can patients add value?
Engage physicians, patients from the onset
What we seek to answer with the study
What we want to ask
Discuss results, how to report them
Proactive knowledge transfer
Standard procedure
Built into calls for proposals, funding
![Page 17: Caught between blindness and a heart attack? · regularly to reduce their risk of heart attacks and strokes are significantly more likely to suffer from age-related macular degeneration](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022063015/5fd307281de09a0d9432fdcb/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
How can academics add value?
Improve quality of conduct (e.g. questionnaires)
Address communication implications from the get-go.Study limitations
Causality, associations
Interpretation (expert vs. expert, lay vs. expert)
Contradictory evidence
Assess results in the context of existing knowledge.
Reporting does not end with publication
