Dr. Lee joined the OHSU School of Nursing following pre- and post-doctoral training in oncology symptom science and palliative care. With a clinical background as an oncology nurse providing care primarily for patients with gynecologic cancers, Dr. Lee is committed to improving symptom experience and quality of life for individuals with cancer and their families during and after cancer treatment. Her current research focuses on psychosocial adjustment, including sexual lives and intimate relationships, in the context of cancer survivorship. Her team has investigated the biopsychosocial mechanisms through which cancer and its treatment affect quality of life, from physical symptoms to sexual health, particularly among women, older adults, and patients with advanced cancer.
