Together against cancer
BZKF Patient Expert Pool
The Comprehensive Cancer Centers (CCC) of the Bavarian university hospitals in Augsburg, Erlangen, Munich, Regensburg and Würzburg aim to improve the chances of recovery and quality of life of cancer patients.
To this end, a Patient Expert Pool (PEP) was set up at the Bavarian Center for Cancer Research (BZKF). The experiences and perspectives of patients and their relatives are to be incorporated into the work of the CCC and the BZKF in order to enable a needs-oriented approach to cancer treatment and research.
Help us!
Are you living with cancer, have you overcome cancer or are you supporting someone with cancer? Then you are an expert who can help us with your personal experience.
We are looking for cancer sufferers and relatives who would like to get involved and are interested in working with us. We do not require any specialist knowledge to participate in our PEP. What counts is your perspective and your experience with cancer and its treatment.
Good to know:
The time commitment depends on your personal time resources. You decide individually whether you would like to participate in a project. You can work from home and will be remunerated.
You can get involved in the following areas:
- Reviewing scientific applications from the patient's perspective
- Editing (reading, evaluating, correcting) text documents
- Collaboration in the creation of public relations measures (e.g. information materials, social media, video contributions)
- Co-designing and participating in information events for patients
- Collaboration in working groups: Participation in presence or online possible
