The researchers write a scientific abstract and a plan language (lay abstract). We are looking for PFD partners to review the lay abstracts and provide a rating. The reviewers will also identify abstracts that should be considered for a lay abstract award, which will be presented at the conference to the top 3 lay abstracts.

We will need 12 patient partners to be reviewers, it is about a 3.5 hr time committee (20 minutes per abstract, and ~10 abstracts to review)

Reimbursement
