Research Informing Policy Forums |
PHCRED Qld is currently planning our 2011 Policy activities to promote the uptake of research into policy and to provide a platform for a more cooperative and targeted approach to primary health care research. The event is a vehicle for initiating discussion on health policy priorities at national, state and local levels, so that the academic sector can align itself in planning future research priorities. 2008 Research Showcase 2009 Research Forum 2010 Research Informing Policy in Primary Health Care Forum |
