Reminder

You’re invited to the next Building Bridges Symptom Science webinar. This webinar series brings together interdisciplinary researchers in cancer symptom science to share their expertise and further discussions in the field.

Treatment for cancer can be harmful to the cardiovascular system both acutely while receiving treatment, and/or long after as late effects for survivors. In this webinar, we will discuss the current state of research on evaluating and managing cancer treatment-related cardiotoxicities. Dr. Ruddy and Dr. Herrmann, a practicing oncologist and cardiologist respectively, will discuss the state of the science in cardio-oncology management and mitigation of these cardiotoxicities, and exciting new tools and directions for cardio-oncology research.
