Dr Karen Oldfield is a PhD candidate at the Victoria University of Wellington and a Senior Clinical Research Fellow at the Medical Research Institute of New Zealand who is looking at the use of cannabis as a cancer medicine in NZ.  All information collected will be treated in a confidential manner and will not be disclosed to any other agencies.

Dr Oldfield has approached CLL Advocates NZ to invite CLL patients to take part in this project:

“Medical cannabis is a topical subject.  As part of my PhD research, I am seeking NZ residents over the age of 18 with an oncology/cancer diagnosis to take part in a 5-10 minute online survey about their thoughts about the use of cannabis as medicine.  For further information, you can find the participant information sheet here https://is.gd/OncInfo2 . If you are keen to take part, please find the survey at the following link: https://is.gd/OncPatientQ. Thanks for taking the time to consider participating in this research!”

We encourage you to help with this valuable study.
