Join Sharsheret for our annual discussion about how hereditary cancer risks affect men, cancers that are of particular concern (e.g. pancreatic, prostate, melanoma, colon, and male breast cancer), and recommended screenings to be proactive about your health and your family\u2019s health.<\/p>\n

With gastroenterologist Dr. Arkady Broder, urologist Dr. Darren Bryk, and Sharsheret’s own genetic counselor, Peggy Cottrell, we will explore hereditary cancer genetics in men, identifying first symptoms, and more importantly, steps we can all take to reduce risk.<\/p>\n

This webinar is open to all, regardless of gender.<\/p>\n
