TASC Patient and Public Involvement 

TASC has a dedicated PPI group to support researchers across the University of Dundee and NHS Tayside.

This group is made up of members of the public who are interested in healthcare research, carers of patients, or patients of any healthcare condition. This group provides valuable insight and advises researchers in Tayside on a range of different research topics. Involving patients and members of the public in planning and performing research is important to improve the quality and relevance of research.

Information for members of the public

We are currently recruiting for the TASC PPI groups.

If you are a patient, carer or member of the public you can find out more detailed information about what the PPI groups will involve.

If you are interested in joining either group, please get in touch.

The PPI manager will get back to you as soon as possible. Please note, places in the group are limited and if there is a large interest places will be allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis.

Information for researchers

If you are a researcher who would like to involve patients or members of the public in your research, please submit an enquiry to public-involvement@dundee.ac.uk

Please submit this as early as possible before your application deadline. TASC PPI support can be given pre-award by arranging a PPI group meeting. The PPI manager can also provide support to funding applications and provide advice on the types of PPI activities that can strengthen your project.
