Celebrating 25 Years of Innovation in Integrative Oncology: Recent Advances and Future Opportunities

Friday, May 17, 2024, 7:55 AM - 5:30 PM, Rockefeller Research Laboratories, 430 East 67th Street, New York, NY

Join leading experts for a one-day symposium exploring evidence-based, patient-centered care advancements in integrative medicine. Our expert speakers will guide participants through effective methods for managing symptoms and side effects associated with cancer treatment, such as pain, anxiety, and fatigue, using integrative strategies including exercise, nutrition, acupuncture, massage, meditation, yoga, and music therapy.

Through a series of engaging lectures and panel discussions, we'll also discuss how to build meaningful collaborations to increase equitable access to these therapies along the patient care journey. This symposium serves as a platform for fostering a comprehensive understanding of integrative medicine, highlighting current achievements, and identifying avenues for growth in delivering holistic and patient-focused care.

Celebratory Networking Reception As we commemorate 25 years of advancements in integrative medicine, we invite attendees to join our distinguished faculty for a celebratory reception at the conclusion of the day, providing an opportunity to foster new connections and cultivate collaborative opportunities. To confirm your participation in the reception, please select this option during your registration. Hors d'oeuvres and refreshments will be served.
