Overview

Kate Boddy is a research fellow for the Patient and Public Involvement Team within PenARC. Her work entails involving people in research so that the people who are meant to benefit from research have a say in shaping it. She has a particular interest in a number of research areas including making research involvement more inclusive, methods of involvement in research prioritisation and involving the public in systematic reviews.
