This was my mentor when I did my post-doc fellowship at Memorial Sloan Kettering.

Dr. Jun Mao, the Integrative Medicine and Wellness Service Chief at MSK, presented research on the benefits of acupuncture for breast cancer patients who experience cancer-related cognitive impairment at the 2025 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium.

Cancer-related cognitive impairment, often called “brain fog” or “chemo brain,” has been shown to affect about 40% of breast cancer survivors. But acupuncture may help alleviate this brain fog, according to a rigorous phase 2 clinical trial led by Dr. Mao.

“These results are good news for patients,” says Dr. Mao. “At a time when there’s a lot of speculation and misinformation about wellness therapies for cancer patients, we are conducting research to offer evidence-based therapies that may help them.”
