Aussie Breast Cancer Forum

One of my patients told me about the Aussie Breast Cancer Forum (enter by clicking the pink ribbon in the top right corner). For online communities/discussion boards, it's certainly one of the most active and well organized I've come across in my surfing. One cool thing they have is a section for Events and Groups, broken down by state. I was very flattered to find that the last post in the WA section was someone copying my flyer that I sent out advertising for my PhD program. I put my 2 cents in, but there wasn't much more I could say since they had literally copied my own flyer.

Additionally, on this website, someone named Ed Everest is credited with putting together "A guide to Oz and NZ breast cancer resources," which looks to have every website and major group ever heard of.

To fully use this website, you have to join, but it's free and painless.
