In the U.S,. African American women continue to experience higher incidence of more aggressive breast cancers (e.g., Triple negative) and breast cancer mortality compared to other U.S. women. Growing evidence links breastfeeding as a potential modifiable behavior to reduce breast cancer risk among African American women.  This talk will discuss research on breastfeeding and breast cancer, as well as identify research and policy implications.

The Cancer Outcomes Research Program Virtual Seminar Series is organized by Drs. Ethan Basch and Stephanie Wheeler. Please log into the Zoom meeting between 7:45 am and 8:00 am to help us take attendance prior to the meeting so we can start on time.
