Study Information

The Breast Cancer Messages Study

This study at Michigan State University is exploring how women interpret information about environmental risk factors for breast cancer. The researchers were looking to enroll at least 180 volunteers. The Call to Action for this study was sent to Army of Women members on February 4, 2010. The researchers were able to close enrollment on February 5, 2010, after the Army of Women provided them with 10,767 women who were interested in enrolling in the study.
