• Colgate University

We are looking to speak to adult cancer survivors over the age of 18 years old about their experiences with friendships after receiving a cancer diagnosis. Given the importance of friendship on health and wellbeing and the gap of the research done on this topic, this study is important because it has the potential to encourage healthcare providers to establish a more patient-centered approach to their care and treatment models. The online interview can be completed between 30-60 minutes. To qualify you must 1. Be over the age of 18 years old 2. Live in the U.S., and 3. Previously have been diagnosed with a form of cancer and are cancer free.

If you are interested in participating or have any questions, you may contact cpalermo@colgate.edu.
