Identifying and understanding inequalities in cancer treatment among people with physical disabilities: A Multi-Methods Studentship

  Research Group: Cancer Care Expert Group
Background. Cancer is a leading cause of mortality in the United Kingdom. Chances for survival are improved when patients receive treatment (‘treatment receipt’), with further improvement when treatment is initiated early (shorter ‘time-to-treatment’). Read more
