Breast Cancer is the biggest malignancy among women worldwide. In the UK every 10 minutes a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer, with increasing rates among younger women. With medical advances a significant proportion of women continue to live longer lives but the traumatic cost of diagnosis and harsh treatments leaves women cognitively impaired and emotionally vulnerable for years.
In this talk, Professor Derakhshan discusses how the targeting and exercising of key brain functions can lower anxiety and distress in women with breast cancer and help improve their cognitive functioning and quality of life. The discussion will conclude with a working model of ‘cognitive resilience’ in promoting emotional well-being in breast cancer.
