I am so honoured to be selected as a recipient of a Canadian Cancer Society Research Training Award. I am so grateful to the Research at Canadian Cancer Society and funders for this exciting opportunity. And thank you to my incredible supervisor, Dr Kristen Haase RN PhD for all your support!

I had a wonderful time at the Edwin S.H. Leong Centre for Healthy Aging Aging Better Together Symposium the last 2 days! I shared preliminary findings from my masters thesis related to understanding healthy aging among older adults with cancer in BC




Thank you so much Research at Canadian Cancer Society for inviting Margaret (Patient Partner) and I to share an update on our study regarding healthy aging among older adults living with and beyond cancer at the CCS BC Research Showcase this evening!


What a wonderful evening! Major thanks to Research at Canadian Cancer Society and to everyone who stopped by to chat and ask questions about our research that is exploring the meaning of healthy aging among older adults living with and beyond cancer.

Loved this workshop - thank you Research at Canadian Cancer Society and Rose D’souza !
