The University of Maryland School of Pharmacy’s PATIENTS Program has launched an initiative to continue its successfully proven approach to community engagement in patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR).

The PATIENTS Professors Academy (PPA) will teach a multistakeholder group that includes pharmaceutical company staff, researchers, government employees, and community members, the PATIENTS Program’s 10-Step Framework for continuous patient and stakeholder engagement. The program’s goal is to increase patient-driven research across the nation.

PPA will be led by PATIENTS Professors – PCOR experts and community members – who will teach enrollees how to develop authentic relationships with patients and community partners. The six-week program will take place through training modules both in the classroom and online. Registration for enrollment in PPA is tentatively scheduled to open in the Summer of 2022 with an inaugural class size of 170 students.
