- @deffinger.bsky.social at Lived Experience Panel @acnporg.bsky.social #ACNP2026: We should be going from consultation to co-production in the integration of lived experience in research 🧠🧪
- Important message from Nev Jones to sr people in the field: Don’t treat young emerging researchers w/ lived experience as a checkbox. Asking them for a grant letter solely because of lived experience puts them in a difficult-to-impossible bind due to power dynamics @acnporg.bsky.social #ACNP2026
- Ok seriously, if you’re not at the Lived Experience study group, you need to be. What an amazing panel-these researchers with lived experience have incredible insights to share about the benefits of integrating lived experience into research. Maya Schumer:it’s additive, not adversarial #ACNP2026
