Dr. Nick Orr of Queen’s University in Belfast, Ireland is the Lead Researcher for a new international consortium working to uncover genes that lead to breast cancer in men.
We are on a mission.
The Male Breast Cancer Global Alliance brings men with breast cancer together with researchers, clinicians and oncologists around the world for the purpose of advancing research, clinical trials and treatments for men diagnosed with breast cancer.
We advocate for all men diagnosed with breast cancer to ensure they receive equal access to support and treatment; serve as a source of support and resources for the men, their caregivers, and families; and recruit volunteer “ambassadors” to increase awareness on a global scale.
