VAST Patient and Care Partner Advisory Council (PCP-AC)

The VAST Patient and Care Partner Advisory Council (PCP-AC) is a group consisting of four people with lived experience of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI) or dementia, and four care partners with experience caring for friends and family affected by VCI or dementia. They are available for consultation on a variety of topics including how best to engage people with lived experience (PWLE) in your research projects, providing input on research questions and study designs, or communicating knowledge and research findings with PWLE and members of the public.
