• Confirm relevance of research protocols to the best interests of the breast cancer community 
• Problem-solve issues and potential barriers pertaining to study design and implementation 
• Optimize participant recruitment strategies and materials 
• Optimize participant retention strategies 
• Ensure results and their implications are disseminated in an understandable way
