The Sociobehavioural Cancer Research Network (SCRN) was established to advance cancer research. It focuses on understanding the cancer experience through behavioural science, from prevention to palliative care.

Area of Science:

  • Cancer research
  • Behavioural science
  • Health services research

Background:

  • The National Cancer Institute of Canada (NCIC) established the Sociobehavioural Cancer Research Network (SCRN) in 1994.
  • Funding was provided by the Canadian Cancer Society (CCS).
  • The network aimed to foster behavioural science studies related to the cancer experience.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the nature of research conducted by the SCRN.
  • To outline the development and organization of the SCRN.
  • To identify challenges faced by the network.

Main Methods:

  • The article provides a descriptive overview of the SCRN.
  • It details the network's structure and research activities.
  • No specific experimental methods are detailed, as it is a network description.
