VOLUNTEERS NEEDED TO PARTICIPATE IN CANCER PREVENTION STUDY

WHO CAN JOIN THE STUDY?   

The study is open to anyone in the United States who is willing to commit to the study long term, is between the ages of 30 and 65, and has never been diagnosed with cancer (not including basal or squamous cell skin cancer).

 

HOW CAN YOU PARTICIPATE? 

The enrollment process involves two steps. One step will take place at the event, where you will be asked to read and sign an informed consent form, complete a brief written survey and give a small blood sample. The blood sample will be drawn by a trained, certified, phlebotomist.  Please go to www.cps3jerseyshore.org  to enroll in this very important study.  Select the site that is best for you.  Please click on the blue “Schedule Appointment” box at the bottom of the page to schedule an appointment.   Appointments are available on Tuesday, September 18, 2012 from 1 p.m. until 7 p.m., or on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 from 7 a.m. until 1 p.m. at the Wilson Hall Auditorium location on the Monmouth University campus.  

The other step takes place at home, where you will complete a more detailed survey. This survey will ask for information on lifestyle, behavioral, and other factors related to your health. Periodically, you will receive a survey at home to update that information.

 

WHAT ELSE CAN YOU DO?      

Make sure to bring some friends with you when you show up and tell everyone you know about this historic opportunity to save lives and fight for every birthday threatened by every cancer in every community. Please feel free to enroll either at Monmouth University or at any of the Meridian locations.

 

WHERE CAN YOU ENROLL:      

Monmouth University Wilson Hall Auditorium, West Long Branch, NJ 07764
