Breast Cancer Awareness Month end. The research doesn't.Breast cancer is often thought of as a single disease, but there are many different subtypes, each with unique characteristics and treatment options. In this talk, we'll discuss the differences between ductal and lobular breast cancer, why understanding diagnostics is important, and how patients can advocate for themselves throughout their care. We'll also take a behind-the-scenes look at breast cancer research, including how scientists grow "mini tumors," called patient-derived organoids, from patients' own tumors to study the disease in the laboratory. These models aim to help researchers identify more personalized treatments and bring precision medicine closer to reality.
