Macmillan HORIZONS Programme
A cohort study to explore recovery of health and well-being in adults diagnosed with cancer
The Macmillan Survivorship Research Group is based within the School of Health Sciences at the University of Southampton.
We are funded by Macmillan Cancer Support to conduct research into issues that affect survivors of cancer. Our research focuses on understanding recovery of health and well-being following cancer treatment and supporting self management of cancer related problems following treatment.
COVID-19
The safety and welfare of our participants, colleagues in the NHS and the study teams are our primary concern in light of the current global COVID-19 pandemic.
Please see the individual study pages for details on the status of each MSRG study.
Now more than ever, we are committed to delivering our purpose to understand what is important to people with cancer during their treatment and the months and years afterwards.
