PGRN Member Survey  |  requested by May 17

PGRN members are invited to participate in a survey about the future of the PGRN. The NIH (which is our only source of financial support), will no longer support the PGRN after June 2020.  We are exploring options that will allow the PGRN to continue to exist as part of another organization, and would like to hear from our members which PGRN services and activities are most important. 
​This survey should take no longer than 10 minutes to complete. 
​We hope that you take the time to complete this important survey by Friday, May 17.
