Creating More Equitable Health Systems

Grateful to have sat down with the BreastCancer.org team at ASCO2026 to talk about something close to my heart. In this episode, I share my own breast cancer journey, why I founded Tómatelo a Pecho and the work we do for women's health, and why I believe cancer control can be a powerful driver for creating better, more equitable healthcare systems worldwide.
