BRCAscoop Has 3 Major Parts

It may be helpful for you to think of BRCAscoop as having 3 major parts:

  1. The main BRCAscoop.com website has a number of features that may be useful to you.  Among other things, this includes summaries of information that may be useful to you.
  2. The BRCAscoop blog is a great way to keep an eye on quick summaries of recent research results, along with a healthy serving of news related to BRCA1, BRCA2, Hereditary Breast and Ovarian Cancer, and other related topics.  The content on the blog together with the free weekly BRCAscoop Email Newsletter (see below) are probably the most important parts of the site.
  3. The free BRCAscoop Email Newsletter is a weekly service that conveniently delivers, direct to your email inbox, curated updates and analysis related to the key new published clinical research results (i.e., that are potentially relevant to the health and/or well-being of people with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations).  You can trust this information to better enable shared decision-making with your healthcare provider.  You can click here to access this great free information resource for BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers – don’t miss it.
