Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in Canadian women
affecting also young women. Come out to learn
and to discuss specific questions about this disease: What are the risk
factors? What are the current treatments, their side-effects? Or, is
breast cancer in young women more advanced at the time of
diagnosis, is it more aggressive?
Join our experts for refreshments and a lively discussion about
the latest cancer research evidence.
