One in eight American women (and around one in 800 men) will develop breast cancer in their lifetime, yet fewer than 10% of cases are due to family history. In this webinar, Pujeeta Chowdhary, MPH, Science and Education Manager at Breast Cancer Prevention Partners (BCPP), will share the latest science on environmental factors that influence breast cancer risk and practical tips to reduce your exposures. For over 30 years, BCPP has been at the forefront of advocating for the elimination of harmful chemicals and environmental exposures linked to breast cancer.
Join us to learn:
