The Mayo Clinic seeks individuals to participate in a study on the views and perceptions of African American women with family or personal experience of breast and ovarian cancer on treatment experiences and genetic testing for cancer risk. Study participation involves speaking with a researcher on the phone or a video conference (e.g. Zoom) for about one hour. Participants will receive a gift basket to thank them for their time.

Why an organization focused on Black Breast Cancer Issues?
