For Breast Cancer Awareness month, in this episode we're speaking with Jasmine Souers, the president and CEO of the Missing Pink Breast Cancer Alliance about some topics that aren't often covered in mainstream oncology. We discuss the individual genotypes, treatment factors and other considerations that make each case of breast cancer a "rare" experience. We also talk about the experiences of people of color, the "spectrum of need" in patients, and how to build equity in the breast cancer community.
If you'd like to learn more about the Missing Pink Breast Cancer Alliance and the work they're doing in the community, you can check out their website at TheMissingPink.org.
