Press Information on Breast Implants
A primary goal of the National Research Center for Women & Families
is to provide accurate, understandable research-based information
to the media. As we collect and analyze scientific studies on the
safety of breast implants, we share our findings through press statements
and interviews. Statements and press updates are posted on our website
as they are released. In addition, we encourage members of the media
to sign up to receive our press releases via email and broadcast
fax by emailing us with your name, media affiliation and contact
information.
Please contact Brandel France de Bravo at 202-223-4000 or bfb@center4research.org
with your inquires. Ms. France de Bravo can assist you with scheduling interviews
with our Center's president, Dr. Diana Zuckerman, and with implant
patients, doctors, and other researchers.
Thank you.
