We're looking for adolescents and young adults with a cancer history who are willing to share their pandemic experiences. Please help us spread the word! Link to participate: redcap.link/dx9qzfl1
Survivorship plans for cancer patients at the end of treatment need to be better than “hey you’re done see ya in 3 months!” 😵💫😵💫😵💫😵💫
Loving the awareness work of artist-survivor @ohyouresotough
Just some of the many challenges AYA cancer patients face. ❤️
It’s AYA awareness week! Did you know that 7,000 AYAs are diagnosed with cancer in Texas each year? @AYASTARLab is committed to improving the lives of AYAs in Texas and beyond. #ayaaware #ayacancer #ayacancerawareness
Check out the full article here: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…
It’s AYA awareness week! Our focus group study on AYAs’ pandemic experience found that for some AYAs with cancer, the pandemic helped break down social barriers around illness. #ayaaware #ayacancer #ayacancerawareness
AYA cancer patients and survivors have a right to receive appropriate care, but they are the most underserved population by age. Here are some key rights that AYA patients need to keep in mind in order to be strong advocates for themselves. #ayaware #ayacancer #ayacancerAwareness
It's AYA (Adolescent and Young Adult) Cancer Awareness week 🚨 89.5K people aged 15-39 will be diagnosed this year in the US! Share information, resources, and events along from AYA orgs and let's reach more people than ever this year! #ayaware #ayacancer #ayacancerAwareness
The AYA cancer experience is unique. One of the goals of #ayaware week is to raise awareness about the challenges adolescents and young adults under 40 face when dealing with cancer and its long term effects, while also managing their daily lives. #ayacancer #ayacancerAwareness
It's AYA awareness week! Cancer turns life upside down for adolescents and young adults (AYA, ages 15-39), who may also face infertility, financial burden of treatment, and accelerated aging due to treatments. #ayaware #ayacancer #ayacancerawareness jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…
Welcome to #ayaware week! This week is all about raising awareness about the AYA Cancer community and the unique challenges of adolescent and young adult cancer. Follow the hashtags #ayaware #ayacancer #ayacancerAwareness so you don’t miss a thing!
One of three presentations from our team (@AYASTARLab) at @ASPrevOnc 2022. It was a lovely time. #ASPO2022
This is what science communication looks like! #ASPO2022 @UTHpromotion @UTexasSPH @UTHealthHouston
Presented this poster at @ASPrevOnc 2022 on behalf of our team’s (@AYASTARLab) work on impacts of COVID on AYA care and mental health. Loved the opportunity to share this important work! #ASPO2022
