NF1 and Breast Cancer Study
Call for Study Participants
The Department of Medical Genetics at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit, MI is conducting a study to evaluate the genetic and molecular characteristics of breast cancer in NF1 patients. We are looking to recruit men or women with NF1 who also have a history of breast cancer. Potential participants would be asked to sign a consent form, provide medical and family history and provide a blood sample and their breast tumor specimen (if available). Travel is not necessary for participation. For more information please contact Renée Tousignant, MS, GC at 313-916-6970 or .
