Join us for Exploring Health Inequities in Breast Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment: Perspectives from a Diverse Panel of Survivors, Providers and Innovators

 

This October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, join MedtechWomen and MedTech Color for a collaborative webinar focusing on the lived experiences of women who are survivors or work directly with breast cancer presentation, treatment, and diagnosis. The discussion featuring perspectives from a diverse panel of survivors, providers, and innovators, will explore the barriers women, especially women of color, face in terms of access, treatment options, and equitable care. The goal of the webinar is to provide an honest patient perspective and dialogue to raise awareness and identify specific actions to increase access and reduce inequities.
