    Dear MPIP Community:

    We are looking for approximately 6 melanoma patients who were diagnosed at Stage III and are willing to participate in a two-hour online discussion focus group on Tuesday, March 10, 2015 from 5-7pm ET. During the focus group, we will discuss the following topics:

    • Knowledge of treatment options
    • The lack of treatment options for Stage III patients
    • The psychosocial effects of a Stage III diagnosis
    • Decision-making around treatment
    • Obtaining a second opinion
    • Supportive resources
    • Your overall experience

    A $100 honorarium will be provided for your participation. In order to participate, you will need a telephone, a computer with high speed internet access and a webcam. If you do not have a webcam, one can be provided to you at no charge.

    If you are interested in participating,  please click HERE to answer additional screening questions. You will then be contacted by our hosting technology company with next steps. 

    You may contact me directly if you have questions about the focus group. Thank you for your help!

    Sincerely,

    Shelby – MRF
