The IMPACT workshop is a program from Weill Cornell Medicine’s Meyer Cancer Center. It aims to raise awareness about gynecologic cancers (cervical, uterine, endometrial, and ovarian) and breast cancer. The workshop helps women understand the importance of screenings, early detection, and clinical trials in cancer care. Each session covers essential screening tests, symptoms, and case studies to give a clear understanding of these cancers.

All attendees who complete the workshop and surveys will receive a $20 gift card.

Presenter: Vrushali Thakkar, Research Intern, Weill Cornell Medicine
