Dr.
In recognition, we would like to introduce you to the staff and board members who are so deeply involved in bringing GRACE to life. In this series of videos, we introduce our staff and a number of the members of the GRACE board.
At ASCO 2018, Dr. Melissa Loh presented a study titled: "Chance of Cure in Advanced Cancer: What Do Older Patients Believe and How Are These Beliefs Related to Their Preferences?". This study looked at patients and their beliefs regarding a cure for cancer, specifically in older patients with advanced cancer. Patients who are certain that they could be cured pose unique challenges for physicians and shows a need for clear communication between patients and their physicians regarding the outcome of treatment and quality of life.
Dr. Melissa (Kah Poh) Loh is originally from Malaysia. She is currently a senior fellow in geriatric hematology/oncology at the University of Rochester/Strong Memorial Hospital in the USA. She will join the malignant hematology and geriatric oncology groups as a faculty at the University of Rochester in 2019. Dr. Loh’s primary interest is the development and evaluation of mobile health behavioral and supportive care interventions for older adults with cancer.
