In this first episode of the 2025 Live from the North American Primary Care Research Group (NAPCRG) conference series, we interview Dr. Felicity Goodyear-Smith. She received her undergraduate and medical degrees from the University of Auckland, where she now serves as Professor and Goodfellow Postgraduate Chair of General Practice and Primary Care. A prolific author with more than 360 peer-reviewed publications, 11 books, and 30 book chapters, she joined the Annals of Family Medicine Editorial Advisory Board in 2024 and has delivered several NAPCRG plenaries, including this year’s. Recorded the day before her plenary, the episode previews the talk she and her research collective were about to give, which tells the story of a Pacific co-design research journey that began with a 2016 PaCE workshop and led to the formation of a Pacific community group and a Pacific Practice-Based Research Network in South Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. Guided by Pacific research frameworks such as fa’afaletui and the Fonofale model of holistic health, their work involves community groups in every step of the research process and includes projects addressing gout and rheumatic fever.
