Values associated with public involvement in health and social care research
OP95 Public Involvement in Health and Social Care Research
Background Public involvement (PI) in research, promoted by the UK Department of Health, has gained considerable momentum. Despite this, examination of the actual impacts of this involvement or how such impacts might be measured effectively remains limited. Evidence about the impact of PI is essential to ensure integrity, avoid harmful effects and to justify resources. In light of this, the overall aim of this MRC multi-phase study was to advance…

School meals and the nutrition of schoolchildren
