Hosted by Co-Chairs of the Faculty\u2019s PPIE Forum, Professor Stephanie Snow, Academic Lead for Community Engagement and Involvement and Kay Gallacher, Public Contributor, the event welcomed 50 attendees including staff, students and Public Contributors.<\/p>\n This year\u2019s theme \u2018Celebrating five years of PPIE\u2019\u00a0looked back on the last five years of PPIE\u00a0since the creation of the Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health. To celebrate this milestone, attendees heard from five guest speakers who showcased the range of activities that have taken place over the last\u00a0few years:<\/p>\n Attendees also explored how PPIE in a health and clinical research setting can embrace the new digital world in a meaningful way through an interactive group activity led by Jenny Ward, Research Co-ordinator in the Faculty\u2019s Digital Experimental Cancer Medicine Team. The discussion points from each group will be collated and translated into a resource to aid the wider PPIE community.<\/p>\n As well as looking back over the last five years,\u00a0the Social Responsibility and Public Engagement team also looked ahead to the future at what comes next for PPIE.
