At Cancer Card, we are always looking to deepen our understanding of the many ways cancer can affect a person’s life. That is why we work closely with academics and researchers, including Masters students from the University of Stirling, to help expand knowledge around the complex and often multi-faceted challenges people affected by cancer may face.
As part of this collaboration, we are supporting two research studies being carried out by students at the University of Stirling, who are currently looking for participants to take part in their work. If you have experienced cancer and would be interested in contributing to either study, please read below for more information.
