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.
