Patient Partners
Denis Boutin
Denis has been living with type 1 diabetes for 40 years. In 2015, he had his first contact with the world of health research, first as a participant in a diabetes research project, then as a member of the Comité stratégique patient partenaire du CRCHUS. Having retired a few years ago, Denis is particularly interested in and passionate about measures, ideas and projects leading to the participative and dynamic integration of patients in research. As a patient partner, he is involved in diabetes research projects, governance mandates and research work related to data access. Also interested in data access and transparency issues, he has been collaborating on the CLARET research program since 2021.
