Practice-Based Research Networks
Practice-based research networks (PBRNs) are sustained collaborations between practitioners and academics who are dedicated to developing relevant research questions, working together on study design and conduct, and translating new knowledge into practice to ultimately benefit the health of populations.1 In 2020, there are around 23 primary health care PBRNs in Australia. There are currently no active PBRNs in New Zealand. The Australian primary health care PBRNs, mostly based in general practice and administered through academic institutions, vary in sizes but their key function is to engage clinicians in research to answer community-based health care questions and translate research findings into practice. The PBRNs listed below will be pleased to connect with AAAPC members who have a research interest or research ideas. 1Pearce KA, Love MM, Barron MA, Matheny SC, Mahfoud Z.
