Help Us Learn More About Lung Cancer
We are inviting adults from the US who have been diagnosed with locally advanced or metastatic (Stage IIIB, IIIC, IVA or IVB) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) to take part in a 60-minute telephone or video interview to get your insight about your experiences. The feedback will help future individuals with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
If you are interested, we would love to hear from you! If you are eligible, you will receive $125 once you have completed the interview.
Learn more here: https://www.pinpointpatientrecruiting.com/nsclc-lungevity or email Kathryn Goodfellow at kathryn@pinpointpatientrecruiting.com to find out if you qualify.

One does not need to be an artist to Create Art From the Heart! Back by popular demand, LUNGevity is partnering with Sites and Insights to offer a 3-part, virtual Mindful Therapeutics Through Art Workshop.
Therapeutic Art provides an innovative way to express fear, anxiety, and grief. As a result, it provides a unique way to help process this life-changing experience. This one-of-a-kind, award-winning, innovative curriculum is proven to help those impacted by cancer by providing a way to heal the emotional trauma by creating a sense of hope, peace, joy and empowerment.
The workshops will run on 3 consecutive Mondays: October 16th, 23rd, and 30th at 4pm Eastern. Participants will receive art supplies in the mail ahead of the first session.
This virtual workshop is free to attend but advance registration must be complete by September 29. https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZcqcuCqrD0iG9wdXCu3yR-Kkhia-I7NOV1Y -
