JISC has just announced funding for the Patients Participate! Project in its Developing Community Content strand. Patients Participate! is led by UKOLN in collaboration with the British Library and the Association of Medical Research Charities. The project will investigate the potential of crowdsourced ‘lay summaries’, derived from medical articles in the PubMed Central repository, as a means of enabling patients to understand better the nature of academic research into medical issues.
