RESEARCH CALL OUT: deadline fast approaching end of SEPTEMBER.
Did you develop a second cancer AFTER being diagnosed with #ocularmelanoma?
"PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY: The way someone thinks about themselves and their body can change almost immediately after getting a cancer diagnosis. This study is
gathering information about the experience of having had an ocular melanoma (OM) cancer, going into remission/cure, and then developing a second non-OM cancer.
Part 1 of this study is a recorded virtual interview using ZOOM lasting
approximately 20 to 60 minutes. An optional Part 2 of this study is a virtual participant Focus Group moderated by the principal investigator."
