Improving outcomes in lung cancer: implementation of physical activity guidelines [ 2014 - 2016 ]

Research Grant

Researchers: Dr Catherine Granger (Principal investigator)

Brief description Lung cancer is associated with complex symptoms which frequently lead to inactivity and functional decline. There are well-established evidence-based recommendations regarding the amount of physical activity that people with cancer should engage in. However the current models of care in lung cancer do not formally utilise these recommendations. This project aims to bridge the evidence-practice gap with the ultimate aim of improving outcomes for people with lung cancer.
