MBT SSW Professor featured in CNN.com Article
Assistant Professor Christabel Cheung shares her personal and professional research experience with CNN.com “Today, Cheung calls herself an “embodied researcher”: essentially, a researcher who is also a cancer patient.
“I’m really interested in the financial toxicity of cancer in this age group,” she said. Those who become cancer patients at a young age find their school and/or work lives disrupted. And, unlike the majority of people who develop cancer — elderly people — teen and young adult patients usually lack a reserve of cash to pay for their treatments and out-of-work time.”
