Study on factors affecting the lives of cancer survivors
Many social, cultural, medical and other factors can affect your life, as well as those of your family and caregivers. Clinicians and researchers at Mays Cancer Center partner with colleagues at the University of Texas at San Antonio School of Public Health and across UT Health San Antonio to better understand the many influences on survivors’ lives and to develop programs to enhance comfort and satisfaction. We want to learn from you about what factors are most important and how to help improve your health, well-being and quality of life.
