Did you know that roughly 2000 men are diagnosed with breast cancer each year? Breast cancer strikes males, but it is one of the most misunderstood diseases for men. In a study led by Dr. Sharlene Hesse-Biber, professor at Boston College, we aim to learn more about male experiences with breast cancer and the BRCA1/2 gene mutation in order to give men a chance to voice their stories.

Are you a male who: - Has a family history of breast cancer and is at a high risk for the BRCA1/2 gene mutation or - Has been genetically tested for the BRCA1/2 gene mutation?

If you answered yes to either of these questions, we hope you will participate in our short confidential survey that asks about your experiences. Please follow this link to read more about the study and take our 20-30 minute survey. https://bostoncollegeaands.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_2meMcRSndGrMxYE

We hope you will take the survey and pass on the information to others who fit the criteria in order to contribute valuable information to our study. If you have any questions or concerns, please call Dr. Hesse-Biber at 617.552.4139 or email [email protected].

Thank you!
