The CBT lab, UCD Conway Institute, Systems Biology Ireland, BREAST-PREDICT and patient advocacy group Europa Donna, together with a number of student societies, came together in October 2017 to raise awareness of the importance of breast health among students on campus for Breast Health Day 2017. Breast Health Day is a global initiative led by Europa Donna which aims to highlight the importance of healthy diet and lifestyle habits in reducing breast cancer risk. Volunteers held hula hooping competitions and handed out fruit provided by our sponsors, Mortons and Donnybrook Fair.
