Aberdeen Centre for Women's Health Research (ACWHR) Seminar with Josie Tapper - Women's health research: increasing credibility and reducing tokenism in patient and public engagement and involvement
Josephine has provided operational and strategic patient and lay advice in the area of public and patient engagement and involvement to multiple clinical, policy, regulatory and academic stakeholders for over ten years. Her principal interests are in the areas of women’s health, clinical research and the intersectionality of health inequalities. She is a long-standing patient member of the department of Improvement Science at King’s College London, co-producing patient and public involvement guidelines, mentoring early career researchers and working on quality improvement (QI) projects including urology surgery training and app development.
At a national level she is a lay member of the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Authority’s (MHRA) Expert Advisory Group for Artificial Intelligence, Software and Apps and lead patient assessor for two National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR) awards (Artificial Intelligence in Health and Care award and Small Business Research Collaboration). Until recently she sat on the NHSE/I Valproate Safety Implementation Group monitoring impact, compliance and patient outcomes in secondary, primary and pharmacy care.
On a personal note, she has been a gynaecology patient since adolescence, is a member of the International Urogynaecological Association’s (IUGA) Patient Advisory Council and is regularly invited to speak on the impact of living with and managing long-term health conditions.
