Nathan Stephens - Am I doing PPI or Was that PPI?

Nathan Stephens narrates his blog written for Dementia Researcher.

In this blog Nathan discusses Patient and Public Involvement, unpacking what that actually means in respect of other similar concepts such as participation and engagement, how PPI can be done throughout the research process, and drawing on my experiences of intentionally and unintentionally doing involvement activities. If you are just starting out with you studies this could be helpful to support PPI elements in your research proposal and ethics, or if your research is underway like Nathan's, it may just be useful to validate your activities and situate them in the research process.
