SUMMARY:AYA-RISE Webinar: Cancer Risk Communication for AYAs
DESCRIPTION:The AYA-RISE Intervention: Risk Information and Screening Education for Adolescents and Young Adults with Cancer Risk\nDr. Mack will share initial results from the AYA-RISE intervention trial\, a groundbreaking study designed to improve how adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer risk syndromes\, such as Li-Fraumeni syndrome\, receive and process critical cancer risk information. By combining chatbot technology and online portals\, this program aims to strengthen communication\, decision-making\, and family support for those facing genetic cancer risks. \nWatch the Recording>>\n\n

SUMMARY:Webinar: Understanding ‘scanxiety’ among individuals with LFS undergoing periodic cancer screening
DESCRIPTION:Rowan Forbes-Shepherd\, Ph.D. \nFeeling anxious before a cancer scan? You’re not alone. \nJoin the LFS Association for an important conversation on scanxiety in the LFS community\, presented by Rowan Forbes-Shepherd\, Ph.D.\, National Cancer Institute. \nMany people with rare inherited cancer conditions like Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS) experience what’s known as scanxiety—the stress or worry that comes before\, during\, or after cancer screening. LFS brings a lifelong risk of multiple cancers\, so regular\, whole-body scans are a critical part of staying healthy. But the emotional toll is real—and not well understood. \nOur study at the NCI takes a closer look at scanxiety in the LFS community: how common it is\, how it affects people\, and what factors may make it better or worse. Join us to learn more and share your experience. \nWatch the recording>>\n  \nWatch the video below to learn more about Rowan’s research at the NCI!
