Public Collaborator Training: Reviewing Plain English Summaries (or Lay Summaries)

This informative and practical online training session led by the NIHR Oxford Biomedical Research Centre and University of Oxford will discuss the importance of Plain English Summaries in medical research and what’s involved in a lay reviewer role.

Who’s it for?

It’s aimed at members of the public who would like to contribute to the research process.

This session will give you the skills and confidence to be a public partner reviewer when the opportunity arises.

You will get practical advice from a public partner and researchers who work in patient and public involvement and research. You can have a go at reviewing a lay summary as part of a supportive team and also receive a checklist of what to do if you are asked to be a reviewer.
