The 17th Annual Myra Rubenstein Weis Health Resource Center Luncheon “Harmonious Healing” May 1, 2013

The 17th annual Myra Rubenstein Weis Health Resource Center Luncheon is dedicated to “Harmonious Healing.” This year’s event will honor NorthShore University HealthSystem (NorthShore) doctor, Janardan D. Khandekar, MD, Director, Center for Molecular Medicine, for the incredible impact he has made in the field of oncology. In addition to honoring Dr. Khandekar, guests will have the opportunity to hear from Brent Bauer, MD, FACP, Director, Complementary and Integrative Medicine Program at Mayo Clinic, about the emergence of integrative medicine, which combines conventional medicine with the best of evidence-based complementary therapies.

Proceeds from the Luncheon will provide funding for Living in the Future (LIFE) Cancer Survivorship Program at NorthShore University HealthSystem (NorthShore). LIFE connects cancer survivors to primary care physicians and local support networks and resources, including the Myra Rubenstein Weis Cancer Survivorship Seminars. These free educational lectures are open to the public and include topics of importance to cancer survivors, including nutrition, exercise and genetics. Funds raised from the 2013 Luncheon will also support diabetes education programming at NorthShore.
