Brought to you by the team at PC4

Join us for this important conversation where two people with lived experience of cancer ask questions of a cancer researcher. In this first episode, Makala Castelli and Terri Byrne are joined by Dr Kristi Milley the national manager of cancer clinical trials group PC4 to explain what consumer involvement in research looks like and why it’s fundamentally important. In this episode we cover:

• What ‘consumer’ means and how we got stuck with this term.

• How Kristi became interested in cancer research

• What Terri and Makala like about contributing to research

• Makala’s experience of ‘now what?’ post cancer treatment
