The following information was shared with us by a research team at the University of Texas at Austin School of Nursing that is currently conducting a study on a culturally tailored online support program for Japanese women in the U.S. who are managing breast cancer-related pain. Many Japanese breast cancer survivors in the U.S. face significant challenges, including stigma and language barriers, that prevent them from seeking help. Please view the flyers below (both English and Japanese are available) to see if you qualify for participating in the study. More information is available at ClinicalTrials.gov.
