Dear Respondents and Supporters,
On behalf of the PROGRAMMING COST Action 21122 Working Group 1, we extend our sincerest gratitude to each and every one of you who took the time to respond to our survey. Your insights, thoughts, and perspectives are invaluable and will play a crucial role in advancing Geriatric Medicine education.
We also want to acknowledge and thank all those who helped disseminate our survey. Your support in sharing our message has made a significant impact. Without your dedication and effort, we wouldn’t have been able to connect with such a diverse and engaged audience.
This journey is made meaningful by people like you who care, contribute, and believe in the importance of Geriatric Medicine. Thank you for being a part of this important process and for your continued support.
Soon, we will present the results, and we hope they will contribute to improving care for older persons across Europe.
The PROGRAMMING COST Action 21122 survey on the educational interests and needs in the field of care for older adults collected over 6000 responses from healthcare professionals and final-year medical students in Europe and beyond.
We encourage COST Action members to apply for the opportunity to analyse the survey data. If you wish to involve collaborators in your proposal, please, encourage them to consider applying to become COST Action members.
Application process
If you plan to analyse the data for the purpose of writing a scientific paper, undergraduate, postgraduate or PhD thesis or policy document, please fill out the Extended Form and submit it to the PROGRAMMING Review Committee along with an abstract detailing your proposal.
If you intend to present data at a conference, please fill out the Simplified Form and submit it to the Review Committee for a streamlined review process.
Scientific publications should be aligned to COST principles of openness and inclusiveness, encouraging open access availability of results and facilitating collaborations of investigators from different countries.
