Dr Cécile Pizot - International Prevention Research Institute, Lyon, France

Dr Pizot speaks with ecancertv at the 2016 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium to discuss her research into breast cancer trends globally.

She describes an overall global trend in reduced mortality, with significant reductions in England and Wales, but notes Latin America and South Korea as regions which have seen increases, and considers the societal drivers behind these outliers.
