This week is #HealthEducationWeek, which is appropriately nested within October’s #HealthLiteracyMonth. Clinical trials are an essential part of our healthcare. They provide critical data that help improve treatments and advance research. However, misconceptions surrounding clinical trials often make some of us hesitant about participating. By educating our communities about?clinical trials and the safeguards put in place to protect patients, we can encourage people to make informed decisions and empower them to explore all possible options that may be best for their unique situation. Read below to debunk the common misunderstandings about clinical trials.

October is #HealthyLungMonth—a time to focus on the importance of lung health, disease prevention, and research. Our lungs play a vital role in keeping us healthy, and there are practical steps we can all take to protect them. Lung disease remains a leading cause of death, but with prevention and continued research, we can reduce the risk and improve outcomes. At MMG, we are proud to have supported research and clinical trials aimed at advancing lung cancer treatments. If you’re part of the effort to advance research for lung cancer and other lung diseases, we’d love to chat. Let’s work together to breathe easier and protect our lung health. #LungHealth #ClinicalTrials #HealthyLungs

Did you know that in 2024, an estimated 310,720 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with invasive breast cancer?

Together, we can accelerate progress and grow the number of breast cancer survivors beyond the 4 million already thriving in the U.S. Join us this #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth in raising awareness and supporting the research that can save lives. Let’s work together for a future with better care and more survivors. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/eRq9PX2 #ClinicalTrials #BreastCancerAwareness #Research
