BAF FLASH – April 2026

BAF Flash | Call for Patient Advisors to Improve Research

Dear Colleagues,

We invite you all to support an important European research initiative that actively involves patients in shaping research. Those who wish to become “patient advisors” are asked to complete two short surveys (each taking 15 minutes) to identify patients’ needs and priorities.

We hope this initiative will yield valuable insights to support future “systematic reviews” on acupuncture and to explore patient engagement within our network.

We are currently seeking (acupuncture) patients with experience in the treatment of:

Menopause

Musculoskeletal and rheumatic conditions (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia)

More information and registration:

Questions? Contact: homa@efhpa.eu.

This initiative is funded by the homeopathy community.

We would greatly appreciate it if you could share this call for participants within your practice or contact interested patients directly. You can also use the BAF’s social media channels for this purpose. Together, we can strengthen the patient’s voice in research.

Thank you very much in advance,

on behalf of the BAF Board
