Biography
Mallory G. Cases have worked with cancer patients and caregivers as a Research Coordinator at the Moffitt Cancer Center and as a Masters in Public Health (MPH) student at the University of South Florida. While working at Moffitt Cancer Center as a Research Coordinator she expanded and developed her role within the Health Outcomes and Behavior department into an active contributor to nearly 40 abstract presentations, 9 of which she has been the first author, and 6 major publications. Many of these publications deal exclusively with exploring the impact of cancer treatments on the quality of life of patients and caregivers.
During the pursuit of her MPH, she worked on the development of culturally appropriate training materials for lay health advisors in the form of an iPad application. This training application will better prepare African American prostate cancer survivors to function as lay health advisors in disseminating accurate and culturally appropriate information regarding prostate cancer screening and detection. More recently, she began coordinating on the development of the patient education portion of Moffitt’s Pathways Project, working towards the creation of clinical pathways that enable cancer patients and their caregivers to make educated decisions based on factors they deem most important to their quality of life.
