Voice of Patient Volunteers
Our Voice of Patient (VOP) Volunteers are storytellers, committed to sharing their journey, experiences and opinions with constituents such as pharmaceutical companies, researchers and even the FDA. They do so in various ways including, but not limited to: participating in interviews, joining patient committees, and even serving on patient panels.
You Are Valued!
We value our Voice of Patient Volunteers because they:
- Provide a wealth of knowledge and first-hand experiences
- Are located all across the world
- Can share what has worked and what hasn’t
- Wish to help research and clinical trials succeed and be more patient-focused
Our VOP program is designed to connect individual patients or caregivers with constituents looking to learn and better understand what it is like living with glomerular disease. This gives our VOP volunteers the chance to share their story and help shape clinical trials to be more patient-centric.
