    Kesler SR, Bennett FC, Mahaffey ML, Spiegel D. Clin Cancer Res. 2009; 15 (21): 6665-73

    To determine the neurofunctional basis of verbal memory dysfunction in women with metastatic breast cancer. This objective was based on previous research suggesting memory and other cognitive deficits in this population. We attempted to determine if verbal memory impairments were related to the most commonly studied disease parameters including adjuvant chemotherapy and chronic stress-related disruption of limbic system structures.
