Exploring a Mobile App to Promote Physical Activity for Childhood Cancer

While advances in cancer treatments have led to an increase in the number of childhood cancer survivors in the United States, this population faces significant health risks including early cardiovascular disease. To address this concern, Katie Devine, PhD, a behavioral scientist at Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey, will explore how a cancer-specific mobile application targeting physical activity might help this population. Dr. Devine recently was awarded an $824,000 Career Development Grant from the National Cancer Institute which will support this work.
