Light-to-moderate drinking appears to have little effect on the risk for breast cancer
The relationship between alcohol consumption and breast cancer remains complicated. A new study confirms earlier findings that heavy drinking increases risk for breast cancer, in this case, predominantly among premenopausal women. This risk exists independent of alcohol type (beer, wine or spirits). Light-to-moderate drinking appears to have little effect on a woman's risk for breast cancer.

Network' approach identifies potential breast cancer susceptibility gene
Like a crossword-puzzle solver who uses the letters in some answers to figure out others, researchers at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and an international group of collaborators have used data on genes involved in inherited forms of breast cancer to identify a gene linked to non-hereditary cases of the disease.

Go Ask Alice!: Breast cancer gene?
Dear Alice... I am an undergrad here. My maternal grandmother had (and survived) breast cancer before the age of forty. In her thirties, my mother had breast cancer (it was advanced, but she recovered), only to (a few years later) be diagnosed with ovarian cancer, which was unfortunately terminal. I know that given these two facts, it is likely that I may be at a higher risk, and my doctors at home watch me carefully. Given the discovery of BRCA-1 (the breast/ovarian cancer gene), I am wondering what to do — should I be tested? Will it matter? I have made an appointment with women's health to get some advice, but I still wanted to ask you. Also, I was wondering if you know if it is possible (or advantageous) to see if I could get my mother's medical records — is this legal? I am not sure what, if anything, I should be doing now (besides exercising, eating right, etc., the obvious)... Thank you... Nature or nurture?
