👥Biography 个人简介
Jennifer Temel at MGH led the landmark 2010 NEJM trial demonstrating that early integration of palliative care for newly diagnosed metastatic NSCLC patients improved not only quality of life and mood, but also overall survival compared to standard care alone — a striking and practice-changing finding. This seminal result transformed the field by providing level I evidence that palliative care is not simply end-of-life care but a survival-extending intervention when integrated early.
