Your saliva can help fight cancer
Join our study! It is fully remote and easy. Make a difference to help improve the treatment and prevention of breast cancer!
Step 1
Join the study and share some health information
Step 2
Return your Saliva sample to us for analyses
Step 3
Your DNA + 1,000s of others is analyzed to make discoveries
Step 4
Researchers make discoveries that can lead to new treatment/therapies
How your saliva can help fight cancer
Join 25,000+ people helping researchers understand breast cancer and get a free ancestry report as a thank-you.
We compare your DNA to reference groups from hundreds of regions worldwide to find where you could came from!
Note: the study does not return individual DNA results.
The more people who participate, the faster we can learn.
All genders, 18+ and living in the United States, with or without a history of breast cancer, are welcome.
We also partner with the Regeneron Genetics Center to analyze genetic data and uncover discoveries that improve lives. Your privacy is protected at every step — only de-identified data is shared.
