The paediatric Patient Expert Group (PEG)

Are you an adolescent aged from 12 to 18 living with arthritis (including rare juvenile idiopathic arthritis, polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis, giant cell arteritis) or multiple sclerosis? Are you interested in getting the skills to actively participate in scientific research to contribute to developing and shape the themes of health, rare disease, innovative research, healthcare, and children’s rights?

Then, this initiative developed by Invents, EJP RD, and TEDDY Network, aimed to set up a paediatric Patient Expert Group (PEG) is the perfect match for you.
As a member of this group, you will be involved in training courses (online and face-to-face), practical activities, and ad hoc tool preparation. Your mission will be to support the researchers participating in the INVENTS project with your opinions and suggestions and to make the project a success for you and other children suffering from a rare disease. 

You can find additional information about the registration and the preliminary programme here.
