Explanation

Research into breast cancer has led to a better understanding of gene mutations linked to the disease and treatments tailored to those risks. As a result, people with certain mutations have more options for prevention and treatment. Research does not mean that everyone faces an increased risk, reveal the complete history of breast cancer, or have an impact only inside laboratories.
