Please join us for New Bedford Science Café! Tues., 4/5, from 6 to 8 p.m., The Vault Music Hall & Pub, 791 Purchase St., New Bedford
Open to everyone. Free, save for the beer! No registration necessary.
Our guest Dr. Ann Partridge, Vice Chair of Medical Oncology at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, will discuss “New and Evolving Strategies for Breast Cancer Prevention and Treatment.”
Breast cancer, the most common cancer in women, is responsible for 40,000 deaths annually in the U.S. and is the #1 cause of cancer-related deaths in young women. As Ann will relate, improved risk stratification, prevention and early detection strategies are on the horizon. Exciting new treatments due to advances in molecular biology & immunology are dramatically improving the outcome for many patients.
Ann is the founder/director of Dana-Farber’s Program for Young Women With Breast Cancer. Married to Mayor Jon Mitchell, this First Lady is proud to call New Bedford home.
We ask those who join us to be vaccinated. Facemasks are strongly recommended.
