On my way to Bristol for this years UKSBM!! Anyone else? 👋🏻
Excited to be attending this years UKSBM conference!
Day 1 - I'll be talking about co-development of a novel behavioural monitoring system
Day 2 - The cancer SIG are hosting a symposium 'Understanding ethnic minority & geographic inequities in the cancer care pathway'.
Who else is attending? 🖐️

STAMINA aims to examine the clinical & cost effectiveness of embedding supervised exercise into the NHS prostate cancer care pathway v optimised usual care. Primary outcome = QoL & Fatigue. Lots of secondary outcomes (behaviour change) & parallel process evaluation. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38610058/
