The importance of hope felt by patients with cancer

My research area is in palliative care. I have studied the importance of hope felt by patients with cancer in palliative home care.

My teaching assignments are lecturing on the Nursing Programme, and acting as a base group supervisor in different terms. I am also a supervisor for students writing their theses and an examiner for Bachelor theses.
