“To address the huge unmet need of patients living with chemotherapy induced neuropathy, there is a new multi PI R01 with Lise Worthen-Chaudhari, The Ohio State University and myself from Yale School of Medicine. Yale Cancer Center testing a modified Argentine tango intervention vs home exercise for breast cancer survivors of all stages experiencing neuropathy based on promising prior R21 results.
