We invite submissions for the GP Patient Survey Data Users Conference, a free-of-charge dedicated forum for showcasing research using data from the GP Patient Survey (GPPS) that is supported by the NIHR School for Primary Care Research (SPCR).

The survey supports service improvement, academic research, and policy development.
