Interested in increasing perceptions of belongingness and social support in your residency program?

Social activities outside work twice a month help!

Thank you to @ASBrS for highlighting our work and @HelenMJohnsonMD for your mentorship!

Key takeaway: pregnant and postpartum patients with breast cancer should be treated per standard of care, regardless of lactational status.

[Helen M. Johnson, MD, IBCLC @HelenMJohnsonMD]

Amazing presentation by T32 fellow Dr Jen Chen @JenChenMD at #ASBrS2025 @ASBrS! Complication rates after biopsy or oncologic surgery in pregnant and postpartum patients are low, and not impacted by lactational status. Rates are comparable to the general population.

[Fedra Fallahian, MD @FedraFallahian]
