BOND UNI RESEARCHERS WANT TO KNOW MORE ABOUT EXERCISE AND CANCER PATIENTS

It’s long been known keeping active is good for the body and mind.

But Bond University researchers want to know how different types of workouts can help cancer patients.

It’s hoped an online survey of oncology nurses will shed light on what exercises are being prescribed.

The study will eventually concentrate on prostate cancer patients.
