Dear Members,

Please be advised of a new campaign by the CCS-UBC Cancer Prevention Centre:

Are you a woman who works shifts? You may be eligible to participate in a sleep improvement program that may improve your quality of life, and help reduce breast cancer. Research has shown that women shift workers exposed to light at night are at increased risk for breast cancer.

With your help, we hope to learn more about how to prevent breast cancer in shift workers. For more information, or visit us at http://cancerprevent.spph.ubc.ca/shiftworkers.

To participate, please contact Carola Muñoz at 604-822-1315, or email shiftworkers.cancerprevent@ubc.ca.

 

Sincerely,

Garth Dinsmore

Director – Health & Wellness
