Roughly 25 to 40% of individuals who undergo cancer chemotherapies are found to have long term cognitive change.  The effects are generally mild to moderate but can have profound consequences for survivor function and quality of life such as reduced educational attainment or change in employment.  This webinar will review this survivorship problem, detail research on the treatment of late cognitive effects and discuss clinical management.
