Maryam Lustberg shared the following on LinkedIn:

“Many patients look for dietary support and counseling during chemo but do not always receive it. We have a funded study offering no charge 100% virtual support for patients starting neoadjuvant therapy for TNBC (Triple Negative Breast Cancer).

Collaboration with Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, Smilow Cancer Hospital at Yale-New Haven.”
