Breast cancer is the most common cancer for Australian women. Knowing how to reduce your risk is a key health priority.
Cancer Australia wanted to develop a website that would deliver evidence-based, up-to-date information on key risk factors for breast cancer in women. Biotext writers and editors worked with Cancer Australia to translate technical and scientific language into website information for a general audience, to ensure that the information was clear and understandable. We also summarised the technical information for health professionals.
The website (breastcancerriskfactors.gov.au) was very successful and received extensive media coverage after its launch in December 2018 (eg ABC Radio, The Sydney Morning Herald, The Canberra Times).
