Title
Provide patients with an improved cancer screening recommendation
Summary
It appears that some women may be genetically predisposed to breast cancer. My research interest is to be able to give patients an improved recommendation for cancer screening by identifying these women. To do this, different data sets will be looked at and I am looking for clusters that indicate an increased risk of developing the disease.
Aims

- To be able to give patients an improved recommendation for cancer screening
- Find clusters that indicate an increased risk of developing breast cancer
