The Ribbon Newsletter
Permanent URI for this collection
This is a collection of issues of the Newsletter, The Ribbon, from the Program on Breast Cancer and Environmental Risk Factors (BCERF) at Cornell University.
Since 1996, The Ribbon has been the voice of BCERF, holding a conversation with our many colleagues and friends, and keeping us in touch and up-to-date. Using a symposium-like format, The Ribbon offers exploration of cancer and environment themes through interviews, contributed articles by researchers, and activist and educator perspectives.
