Learning Opportunity: Breast Cancer and the Environment: What do we know and how can we reduce exposures?

This webinar will review what science tells us about the role of environmental chemicals, including endocrine disrupting chemicals, in breast cancer. With a focus on homes and communities, we will discuss steps people can take to reduce exposures to breast cancer-related chemicals.

Learning Objectives

 

• • Define genetic and environmental risk factors linked to breast cancer;

 

• • Define endocrine disrupting chemicals and describe their sources and exposure patterns; and

 

• • Identify opportunities at multiple scales to limit exposures to chemicals related to breast cancer.
