Hello everyone
I'm adding some new references to the resource list - these are papers that relate to tonight's lecture, so you can access them afterwards if you want to. Heather Goodare is a 'patient' who works with me and many other health and research organisations. Her story is relevant to Unit 1 Thought Question 2 and the idea that a lay person's status is compromised as they become more expert. She is certainly not a typical patient! But she has had a fantastic impact as an involved patient. Similarly, Dave deBronkart is a very expert patient with an interesting story to tell.
