Female employees of the NIHR Secretariat-General participated in the event, where they were introduced to the risks of this disease in women, its stages, ways to prevent it, and the importance of early detection through regular examinations, which provide an opportunity for early detection of the disease and provision of the necessary treatment to achieve high survival rates.
