Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This project will use focus groups to explore the factors involved in brain cancer health care literacy from the perspectives of patients and those involved in their care. Hypothesis generated from this project will be directly applied toward future projects. The overarching goals are improved access and adequacy of health care literacy information through the eventual development of validated, useful, reliable health care literacy information tools for brain cancer patients and those involved in their care.
