Podcast Episode 1 – A cozy chat about cancer, Newfoundland and Labrador, and fate of a bagel

On this World Day of Cancer, we are excited to release our Podcast Episode 1, where Jason, Janine, and myself talk about cancer, our province, and a bagel (!) in a comfy, cozy, and friendly way 🙂

A few things we – The Public Interest Group on Cancer Research – wanna achieve with this podcast series are to:

  • remove stigma around cancer
  • make it a conversation topic
  • learn from each other

so that we can help reduce our risk of getting cancer and support ourselves and others going through cancer better.

Please join us in this goal.

You can find more info about this project here or can contact me (savas{at}mun.ca).

Funding by the Office of Public Engagement – Memorial University and support by NLSUPPORT are gratefully acknowledged.

Project end report for stakeholders: Development of a community engagement & outreach strategy on cancer

We are very pleased to share the Project End Report for our latest Public Engagement project entitled “Development of a community engagement and outreach strategy on cancer”.

This is a project that was designed by the Public Interest Group on Cancer Research.

The project leads include John King a public member and Sevtap Savas, a researcher.

There is useful knowledge for all stakeholders, including communities, researchers, healthcare providers and administrators, and governments. Take a look.
