My name is Georgina Hosang (Queen Mary University of London) & I am researching ethnic differences in bipolar disorder. To shape this work I would like to hear from adults with lived experience of bipolar disorder, family members & informal carers from ethnically minoritised groups (eg, Black, Asian, Mixed, Arab ethnic groups).
Please complete our 5 minute survey to have your say on what are the most important research areas

A study at the University of Oxford is recruiting adults in who have experience of using a GLP-1 medication for weight loss through NHS England. The study explores experiences of GLP-1 use within current NHS care pathways to help inform how delivery in general practice can be best supported in the future. Participation involves a one-off online interview.
Short questionnaire, which should take less than 5 minutes to complete, to inform research for a PhD fellowship proposal on Type 2 Diabetes management. Input from people with lived experience of diabetes would be particularly valuable. Link to google form is below. Responses are anonymous.

We are inviting parents from ethnically diverse backgrounds across the UK (especially fathers) to join a Patient and Public Interest (PPI) group.
This will involve:

Any parent with lived experiences and views about the topic are welcome.
This research project will run from June 2026 to December 2029.
My name is Nicola Lindson (University of Oxford). I am developing a research project about smoking, vaping and ADHD and would like views to help shape it. This will help me to be sure that I am doing research that is important to people and that is likely to be most useful. This survey is for adults (18+) with ADHD (diagnosed or suspected) who currently smoke and/or vape nicotine or have smoked and/or vaped nicotine in the past.

We are researchers looking to apply for a grant to improve the uptake of the bowel cancer screening programme.
We are looking for people in the UK, aged 50-74 (with some flexibility on the age range), from a mix of backgrounds.
We are interested to hear a broad range of voices, but we are especially interested to hear from people who have skipped returning their sample.
Join us for an online meeting Fri 1st May (11.00-12.30pm)!
We are exploring how people use languages in everyday life, and how this relates to individual experience of social interactions. We are particularly interested in how language use can interact with some social traits that have been associated with autism spectrum disorder, including anxiety, discomfort and confidence. We are interested in a wide range of experiences and communication styles. Both autistic and non-autistic adults are welcome to take part.
