Please refer anyone who meets the criteria !

The Sister Study is the only long-term study of women aged 35-74 whose sister had breast cancer. It is a national study to learn how environment and genes affect the chances of getting breast cancer. The Sister Study has nearly reached its goal of enrolling 50,000 women. Currently, enrollment is limited to specific groups of women who are underrepresented in the study so that results will apply to all.

For more information, please visit http://www.sisterstudy.org

You are invited to participate in the Sister Study if: * Your sister, related to you by blood, had breast cancer. * You are between the ages of 35 and 74. * You have never had breast cancer yourself. * You are a woman living in the U.S. or Puerto Rico

Specifically, the Sister Study still needs women from the following groups to enroll:

* African Americans, Latinas, Asians and Pacific Islanders, and Native Americans between ages 35-74.

* Caucasian women between the ages of 55-74 or with less than a bachelor's degree.
