Dr. Zhaoping Li: Nutrition and Pancreatic Cancer…Food Matters!

The Hirshberg Foundation is delighted to welcome past Seed Grant awardee and crowd favorite Dr. Li to the 15th Annual Symposium on Pancreatic Cancer to discuss the importance of nutrition for all those with a pancreatic cancer diagnosis. In 2016, Dr. Li received a Hirshberg Seed Grant to help fund a nutritional study that seeks to improve the outcomes of pancreatic cancer patients that are not eligible for surgery. Dr. Li has spoken previously at the Symposium on the importance of nutrition for pancreatic cancer patients. She was integral to our cooking class for patients and their family members and helped to develop a handful of healthy recipes. Consistently a crowd favorite, she shares important, real world tips on optimal nutrition for the patient post-surgery as well as for those non-surgical patients.
