A Partnership between Patients and Providers
All of our research uses patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) methods. PCOR means that our patients are equal members of the research team at every step of the research process from ideas through dissemination.
Our research was funded by the following grants:
CF Foundation Grants
2018-2019 Impact Grant Award
2020-2022 Eugene Washington Award
2023-2025 Community Support Grant Award
Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Eugene Washington Awards
PCORI:
- funds studies that improve outcomes important to patients.
- funds studies that can help patients and those who care for them make better-informed healthcare choices
- feels that all stakeholders–including patients–positively influence research.
The Eugene Washington PCORI Engagement Award program, promotes the inclusion of patients, caregivers, clinicians, and other healthcare stakeholders in the research process with the goal of building capacity to engage in patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) and to help disseminate study results.
CFReSHC is committed to conducting projects that employ the principles of PCOR and promotes projects that include patient partners as equal members of the research team.
CF Foundation Pilot and Feasibility Awards
The CF Foundation provides pilot and feasibility awards to support basic science research studies focused on developing and testing new hypotheses in areas relevant to cystic fibrosis. One common theme during PTF meetings focused on hormones and how they may or may not impact CF symptoms.
The CFF Pilot and Feasibility Award enables CFReSHC to continue its mission by translating a patient priority into a viable research study.
