McGrady Research Lab

The McGrady lab focuses on promoting health behavior change, including medication adherence, among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer. Treatment for adolescents and young adults with cancer often includes a variety of complex health behaviors, such as taking multiple medications at varied dosing schedules and participating in physical therapy. Following treatment recommendations can be difficult, but it can lead to better health outcomes. The goal of our lab is to develop and test new interventions to help make adherence easier for adolescents and young adults with cancer.
