Thanks to Dr. Serdar Bulun (Chair, Dept. of Ob/Gyn) for kicking off our Reproductive Research Update presentations this year!

Dr. Bulun presented on "Uterine disease: how genetics and environment inform clinical decision-making."

We're looking forward to a year of great research and community!

Chart showing average Atlantic hurricane and tropical storm activity from May to December based on data from 1944 to 2020. Activity increases sharply in August, peaking in mid-September. A marker indicates the current date as July 28, just before activity begins to rise.

On average, 86% of all named tropical systems in the Atlantic occur after August 2, and the first hurricane doesn't form until August 11.

Breast cancer strikes men, too. My husband is one of them | Op-Ed We need to encourage doctors to ask their male patients about their risk factors for breast cancer and examine their chest for lumps, as they do in women.

So proud of Dr. Kristina Adams Waldorf for her powerful Op-Ed in The Seattle Times highlighting an overlooked truth: men get breast cancer too. Awareness & advocacy are critical. Please read & share! www.seattletimes.com/opinion/brea...
