¿Se identifica como hispano/latino y ha recibido pruebas genéticas para el riesgo de cáncer hereditario o tiene antecedentes familiares de cáncer y/o diagnóstico de cáncer? Si es así, nos encantaría entrevistarlo sobre su experiencia. #pruebasgenéticas #cáncerhereditario

[@FacingOurRisk @FacingOurRisk]

Do you identify as Hispanic/Latino and have either received genetic testing for hereditary cancer or have a family history of cancer and/or cancer diagnosis? If so, we’d love to interview you about your experience! #genetictesting #hereditarycancer

[Amanda M. Gutierrez @_AMGutierrez]

Honored to speak at #AlzLatinos2022 with such wonderful co-panelists! Thanks to Dr @ytquiroz for bringing us together for this panel on terminology in medical research. Let’s continue the conversation to find better ways to capture complex Hispanic/Latino identities in research!
