Welcome to mCancerTalk. The University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer Center created this site to start a wide-ranging conversation: from news about the latest in research and prevention to tips for coping and living well with cancer. We hope you’ll join in.
As the second-leading cause of death in the United States, cancer’s impact is profound. We know it affects nearly everyone—survivors, families and friends—but in very different ways. Our experts offer credible information you can rely on—and are often available to answer your questions during live chats.
What makes mCancerTalk unique is that it isn’t a one-way street: We want to hear from you. Talk back to us by posting comments or visit one of our many discussion boards to chat with other members who may be facing similar concerns. All discussion is monitored by oncology nurses from the U-M Cancer AnswerLine.
Take a look around. Subscribe to our blog updates via email or RSS feed. Join the conversation.
We look forward to hearing from you.
