What this research studies
This research focuses on creating and testing new technologies to improve cancer control processes, particularly for breast cancer survivors. It aims to enhance shared decision-making in survivorship care planning and improve communication between clinical teams and patients through innovative methods like natural language processing. The project will involve multiple pilot studies to evaluate the effectiveness of these technologies in real-world settings, ensuring that patient and family engagement is prioritized throughout the process.
Who could benefit from this research
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this research include breast cancer survivors who are navigating survivorship care planning.
Not a fit: Patients with cancers other than breast cancer may not receive direct benefits from this research.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this research could lead to improved communication and decision-making for cancer survivors, enhancing their overall care experience.
How similar studies have performed: Other research has shown promise in using technology to improve cancer care communication, indicating that this approach could be effective.
