About the event
Many people living with and beyond breast cancer experience changes in memory, concentration, attention, and mental clarity after treatment. Often referred to as "chemo brain" or cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI), these cognitive changes are real, common, and can affect quality of life during and long after breast cancer treatment.
In this educational webinar, Stanford neuroscientist Dr. Jin Hyung Lee explores the latest research on brain health after breast cancer, helping us better understand why cognitive symptoms occur, why they are often overlooked in cancer care, and what patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals should know about recognizing and managing these changes.
