The ‘participatory’ concept may also be applied to fitness, nutrition, mental health, end-of-life care, and all issues broadly related to an individual’s health.

The Society was founded to learn about and promote Participatory Medicine through writing, speaking, social networking, and other channels. Join us!

Our two founding core initiatives are the e-patients.net blog and the Journal of Participatory Medicine.
