Beyond Brain Cancer: A research opportunity for people who live in Australia and have experienced brain cancer or cared for someone with brain cancer.
Surviving brain cancer and the time after you have finished treatment can be complicated and confusing. There are often new challenges, such as friendships changing, or losing some of your independence. There can also be new stresses, like feeling different, and worrying about the cancer returning or progressing (getting worse). These things can all make the transition back to ‘normal’ life difficult.
What's the opportunity?
We're inviting you to help our friends at University of NSW understand what life is like after treatment for brain cancer and what you find helpful in available supports. By sharing your experiences and opinions with us you will help us create a new peer-support intervention for young people after brain cancer treatment.
Who is it for?
- People living in Australia who are aged 15-40 years and have completed brain cancer treatment that has been successful in controlling, removing or treating a primary or secondary/relapsed brain tumour
- Caregivers of young people aged 15-40 years who have experienced brain cancer and are living in Australia
