Forward March
October is National Breast
Cancer Awareness Month,
placing the battle at the forefront
of our thoughts. Only this year,
thousands of women are upping
the ante and turning awareness
into action. How? By teaming
with Susan Love, M.D., president
of the Dr. Susan Love Research
Foundation, who’s recruiting an
army of 1 million women
scientists identify what causes
the disease. “I’ve been in this
field 30 years, and we still have
no idea why breast cancer really
occurs,” Dr. Love says. “It’s
enough to look at only breast
cancer patients and survivors
we need to study healthy women,
too.” To learn how you can help,
