THE RESEARCH AND TRAINING INSTITUTE ALSO MANAGES THE CANCER EXPERIENCE REGISTRY, IN WHICH PATIENTS AND CAREGIVERS ARE THE EXPERTS. THE CANCER EXPERIENCE REGISTRY ENABLES PATIENTS, SURVIVORS, CAREGIVERS, RESEARCHERS AND OTHER KEY STAKEHOLDERS IN THE CANCER COMMUNITY GAIN INSIGHTS ABOUT THE SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL NEEDS OF PATIENTS, FAMILIES AND CAREGIVERS THROUGHOUT THE CANCER JOURNEY.
