About the study
Previous research shows that people with prostate cancer have an increased risk of lifestyle-related diseases, such as cardiovascular disease. Many of these conditions can be prevented through changes in lifestyle habits.
The aim of the study is to explore how a digital health app can support healthier habits and, in the long term, contribute to improved health and disease prevention.
