My name is Kai-Lin You, and I am a Ph.D. student researcher at the University of Pittsburgh. Our research team is conducting a study to explore return-to-work experiences in registered nurses with cancer. We are collecting information to understand nurses’ experiences returning to work after a cancer diagnosis and associated barriers and facilitators.

We will be asking people to complete a questionnaire and a focus group interview online. We will also offer a chance for participants to provide feedback on the preliminary synthesis of the study results.

If you are interested, please contact our research team.
