Researchers at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre are analysing breast milk to understand this reduced risk.

To contribute to this important research, you will be asked to donate a maximum of 10 samples of milk over a 6-24 month time period.

For any questions, please contact Dr. Megan O’Malley at [email protected]

This research has been approved by ABA: approval number 2023-01
