http://www.web-books.com/eLibrary/ON/B0/B10/38MB10.html Our proposed topic is on the tumor suppressor genes BRCA1 and BRCA2. It is well known that once these genes become mutated, it causes breast cancer, and there are genetic tests that determine whether these genes are mutated. We will be focusing on the tests and results. Once a patient takes this test and it comes back positive, what should that person do? How should their lifestyle change? Answering these questions will be our emphasis.
