Generation Patient Roundtable: Young Adults with Chronic Conditions Leading Health Systems Change – Town Hall
Generation Patient’s Roundtable on Young Adults with Chronic Medical Conditions brought together a learning community of young adult patients, health care professionals, caregivers, researchers, policymakers, advocates, and others to explore the most pressing systems-level challenges impacting young adults living with chronic and rare conditions (see video recording below).
Co-authored by young adults with chronic conditions and members of the project team, proceedings for each roundtable highlight key insights and actionable recommendations and will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals.
Co-leaders of the eighth and final roundtable outlined the process of multidisciplinary collaboration, shared key themes that emerged from the series, and discussed the process of young adult patients leading authorship for peer-reviewed publications.
Roundtable #8 co-leaders:
- Sneha Dave, Executive Director, Generation Patient
- Katherine Melton, PhD, RN, Nurse Scientist, Brown University Health
- Peyton Miles, Young Adult Patient Advocate
- Rose Keller, Young Adult Patient Advocate
