In this insightful discussion, the speakers will explore the origins and development of integrative oncology programs at two major U.S. cancer centers: the Zakim Center at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the Integrative Medicine Program at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center. They will share behind-the-scenes stories on how these pioneering centers were established, highlighting the challenges and successes in building comprehensive integrative oncology services. The session will also delve into specific initiatives like Dr. Ting Bao’s role in setting up the Physician Consult Service at Dana-Farber, the development of the MyZakim website, and Fred Hutch’s “Cook for Your Life” website, which provides cancer patients with essential nutrition resources.
