The Patient and Consumer Participation Pool (or "the Pool") is an exciting and meaningful way for Canadians to get involved in issues of interest to them that relate to health products and food.

The Pool is a pilot project and will consist of between 50 -100 patients and consumers who will be provided with training and tools to allow them to meaningfully participate in consultations that relate to health products (for example drugs, medical devices and natural health products) and food.

The deadline to submit an application to be in the Pool is February 15, 2012.

Contact the Pool Secretariat for more information on the Pool.
