Addressing deficits and injustices : the potential epistemic contributions of patients to research

Acknowledgments The research for this paper was primarily funded by an Australian Research Council (ARC) grant (DP120101092), How do we know what works? Ethics and evidence in surgical research. Katrina Hutchison’s research was also partly funded by the ARC Centre of Excellence for Electromaterials Science, where she has worked since June 2015. Discussions about the paper were facilitated by Macquarie University funding of a visit by Vikki A. Entwistle to participate in a Centre for Agency, Values and Ethics (CAVE) seminar on Capabilities Approaches to Justice. The authors would like to thank the anonymous reviewers for a number of helpful comments.
