A diagnosis of breast or ovarian cancer affects everyone in the family, not just the person diagnosed. A Pink and Teal Seminar in your workplace can empower you and your colleagues to take control of your health and prepare for a future family health crisis. Contact Arlene Matlick to schedule a free Pink and Teal seminar today.

Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer Study Participants Needed
|
Veritas Genetics is working to expand its BRCA genetic test to include several other genes associated with increased risk for breast and ovarian cancer. They need participants with known BRCA structural mutations or pathogenic variants in genes other than BRCA1 or BRCA2 to provide a saliva sample. If you'd like to volunteer, please contact [email protected] to see if you qualify. Veritas Genetics works to make genetic information accessible to all, and for each test purchased, it donates free testing to an individual in need.
