  • 3/2 UConn Science Salon: Cancer and the Family

    Modern medicine is rapidly developing to combat cancer using innovative strategies, with increasing success. But a cancer diagnosis is still all too common and, even with a positive outcome, can have devastating affects on the survivor and family. 
     
    Join us March 2 as UConn Science Salon takes a look at the way that cancer impacts the family, caregiver stress, and the challenges that grief or survivorship present. Expert panelists from the social and medical sciences will come together to talk about emotional and physiological affects of cancer, and some strategies for coping.
