Breast cancer
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women worldwide. About one in nine women will develop breast cancer before the age of 75. Breast cancer can also occur in men, although it is less frequently diagnosed. CRIG researchers focus on many different aspects of the disease to improve patient outcome.
