You’re invited to a Redes En Acción webinar at 11 a.m. CST Tuesday (3/10/15) to explore racial/ethnic differences in treatment decision-making among women with ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), the most common type of non-invasive breast cancer.
Having DCIS can increase risk of developing more invasive, life-threatening breast cancer.
The webinar will describe findings from a study that compares Latinas and non-Latina White women with DCIS and their trajectories from treatment decisions to follow-up, including satisfaction with their decisions and quality of life after diagnosis and treatment.
The webinar will feature study investigator Dr. Celia Kaplan (pictured), a Redes investigator and professor in residence in the Department of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco.
Register here for the webinar.
This webinar will be conducted by Redes En Acción, a national Latino cancer research network funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and led by the Institute for Health Promotion Research at the UT Health Science Center at San Antonio, the team behind SaludToday.
