Cognitive and Brain Functioning after Treatment for Breast Cancer

Have you recently been diagnosed with breast cancer but have not yet started treatment (other than surgery)? You may be able to take part in the UNC CogMAP study. In this study, we want to learn more about cognitive and brain function before and after cancer treatment. This will help us to better understand risk factors for experiencing cognitive difficulties during and after treatment.
