Abstract

I have attempted to adopt the perspective of a patient--albeit one with a rather atypical background--to explore what I want from health research and researchers. This has left me with the impression that health researchers could serve the interests of the public more effectively in a variety of ways, and that they would be helped to do so by greater lay involvement in planning and promoting health research.
