IMAGINE Project News
The IMAGINE Project is advancing integrative oncology care by implementing evidence-based acupuncture and massage therapy in cancer centers across the United States. The project, a partnership between SIO and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, facilitates implementation of evidence-based acupuncture and massage therapy for cancer-related pain across 35 cancer centers in the United States.
- The project’s second SIO Research Blog, “IMAGINE & Implementation: Advancing Evidence-Based Integrative Oncology Care,” explores how implementation science can help move promising therapies from research into routine oncology practice.
- The American Massage Therapy Association sits down with Dr. McConnell, PhD, and Rocco Caputo, LMT, the IMAGINE project’s lead massage therapist, to discuss the IMAGINE Project and what it might mean for the future of integrative oncology care. Read and listen to “Advancing Massage Therapy in Integrative Oncology Care: The IMAGINE Project” on the AMTA website.
The IMAGINE Team is thrilled to announce that its pre-conference workshop exploring implementation science in the context of the IMAGINE Project will be held the morning of September 29, 2026, at the SIO 2026 International Conference in Detroit, Michigan.
