In this new series "ask the expert" we ask international experts on psychosocial oncology for their opinion on important topics. In this video we talk with Prof Jimmie Holland from New York's Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center about how emotional needs of cancer patients can be best met. She talks about the importance of minimizing stigma and shame and both the past and future of psycho-oncology. Thank you Prof Jimmie Holland!
