October 2025 BRA Banter - Exploring Genetic Testing

By BRA Groups • October 20, 2025

In this edition of BRA Banter we had the pleasure of speaking with Katie Lang, a seasoned and passionate genetic counselor whose expertise goes well beyond the familiar territory of BRCA1 and BRCA2. Our chat explores the latest developments in genetic testing , especially for breast cancer survivors, highlighting how the field has evolved, expanded, and opened new possibilities. Katie was fascinating to talk to—her energy and dedication shone through, and she generously shared a wealth of insight. We found her to be not only deeply knowledgeable but also a genuine delight to engage with. Tune in on October 29 as we uncover what’s new, what survivors should know, and why genetic testing today is about so much more than just the BRCA genes.
