Her research has received funding from institutions including the National Cancer Institute and the American Cancer Society, reflecting her expertise in caregiver mental health, palliative care, and psychosocial oncology.
Applebaum is a public speaker and advocate who shares insights through live events, interviews, podcasts, and media appearances, highlighting the experiences of caregivers beyond academic circles. Her work addresses the emotional and practical challenges faced by caregivers and offers strategies for support, resilience, and recognition. Through leadership, research, and public engagement, Applebaum contributes to advancing caregiver support in healthcare.
