Abstract
The inclusion of individuals with disabilities and patients as partners in biomedical research is critical for driving innovation. Equally important are patient–researchers, who are instrumental in identifying key research problems and driving research towards areas of direct benefit. We call for institutions to actively work towards accommodating patient–researchers.
