Evaluating Risk Scores for Triple-Negative Breast Cancer in Black Women

Holly Pederson, MD, an Oncologist and member of the medical breast team at Cleveland Clinic, joins the Cancer Advances podcast to discuss her research on using polygenic risk scores to predict early onset triple-negative breast cancer in Black women.

Listen as Dr. Pederson talks about the complexities of genetic risk factors across different ancestries and how these scores can revolutionize early detection and prevention strategies.
