The Generations Study

The Generations Study is a longitudinal cohort study established in 2004 and involving 110,000 adult women living across the UK. The cohort collects extensive high-quality data to study the continuum of breast cancer, from its causes to outcomes. Through this research we are learning how to prevent breast cancer, detect it early and improve quality of life and survival after diagnosis.
