Modern cancer therapy has significantly improved cancer survival, transforming several once-fatal cancers into chronic disease, but often at the expense of exposure to cardiotoxic drugs. Cardiovascular disease is now a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in cancer survivors as they are living long enough to experience later onset cardiac effects of these treatments. Cardio-oncology is a rapidly evolving field comprised of multidisciplinary care teams focused on improving the outcome of patients with cancer.

The goal of the lecture series is to provide clinically relevant, state-of-the art, best practice strategies in the evaluation and management of cardiovascular concerns during and after cancer therapy. Experts from Memorial Sloan Kettering and around the country will present an up-to-date overview on novel cancer treatments and current strategies to optimize the cardiovascular health of cancer patients. Each session, held once a month (Tuesdays from 12:00-1:15 pm), will consist of 3-4 lectures followed by a live interactive Q/A with faculty.
