About this listen
In this episode, we dive into groundbreaking research uncovering new genetic variants linked to breast cancer risk. Two recent studies, published in Nature and Nature Genetics, have identified a total of 75 genetic variants that could help researchers better understand breast cancer susceptibility. The first study reveals 65 new genetic markers associated with breast cancer risk in general, while the second zeroes in on estrogen-receptor-negative breast cancers, discovering 10 more, including 3 that overlap with the initial findings. Together, these studies represent a huge leap toward personalized breast cancer screening and treatment, helping doctors predict individual risk more accurately. Join us as we explore what these findings mean for the future of breast cancer prevention and care.
