How to Change the World
Hilton Minneapolis Hotel

It is pretty easy to change the world -- you just have to want to! When Dr. Susan Love started her practice as a breast cancer surgeon in 1980, women were routinely treated with radical mastectomies. The changes in the world of women's health both in breast cancer and menopause are a direct result of the action of a few women who cared deeply. Join us as Dr. Love shares stories of the breast cancer advocacy movement and her current work on preventing breast cancer.
Susan M. Love is currently President and Medical Director of the Dr. Susan Love Research Foundation in Pacific Palisades, CA, a nonprofit dedicated to the prevention of breast cancer. She is a Clinical Professor of Surgery, The David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA, and founder and senior partner in LLuminari, a multimedia women's health company. She is one of the "founding mothers" of the breast cancer advocacy movement and continues this work by serving on the boards of the National Breast Cancer Coalition and Y-ME National Breast Cancer Organization. She was appointed by President Clinton to the National Cancer Advisory Board in 1998.
She is the author of Dr. Susan Love's Breast Book, now in its fourth edition, and Dr. Susan Love's Menopause and Hormone Book (second edition January, 2003).
