Re: To Lani and those scientifically inclined

Hopefully some review of the conference with the relavant info will be posted before then.

PS didn't see your request before. Sorry

Hi Lani,

I hope you're having a great weekend. :0)

I'm really sorry to bother you, especially around the holidays and after a very busy time. My report is due in the beginning of January. I'm grateful for whatever help you are able to give me when it is convenient to you. I wrote the majority of the paper and hope to improve it with more science background in layman's terms incorporated in it if you could possibly "translate" the main point of key studies, like Dr Tisty's research on CD36. I don't think they are expecting complex explanations and I don't want to make a bigger deal out of it than necessary but a couple more simple, brief summaries of the research would be helpful. Can we possibly please correspond privately by email or PM and I'll send you what I've written?

This is where the on-line info is:

Under the daily slide review on the SABCS.org site the slides are under Thursday Dec 6: Mini Symposium 2 (3 sessions).

Dr Tisty did not submit an abstract as far as I can see. Her session was on the biological basis of breast density and cancer risk.

The other two sessions I am covering that do have abstracts posted are:

Genetics and Epidemiology of Mammographic Breast Density
Breast Density: Clinical Implications


With much appreciation and thanks,

Paula
