Breast Cancer Research

Lynn Sage’s Grants Initiative supports critical research projects that affect potentially every patient with breast cancer — through clinical innovations and research studies.

Funded projects make a difference in understanding better ways to prevent, diagnose and treat breast cancer.

Every grant provides seed funding for breast cancer researchers at Northwestern to test theories and develop innovative solutions – all with the hope of creating a cure for breast cancer, improving care and enhancing the overall experience.

Projects that show promising results then seek funding from competitive extramural funding sources such as the National Institutes of Health.

Breast Cancer Outreach

LSCRF works to increase awareness of the importance of early detection and treatment of breast cancer as well as to highlight the latest research and most effective care and treatment options.
