MBCGA Launches a Global 2026 Quarterly Webinar Series—Education, Empowerment, and the Future of Male Breast Cancer Care
This new series builds on years of MBCGA’s commitment to visibility, equity, and clarity in male breast cancer. From its earliest educational forums and digital town halls to international collaborations with clinicians and survivor-leaders, MBCGA has consistently used education as a catalyst for empowerment. The 2026 webinar series formalizes that mission into a structured, seasonal platform—each quarter focused on a topic that directly affects quality of life, decision-making, and long-term survivorship.
A Legacy of Education, Now Elevated
Historically, MBCGA webinars have served as safe spaces where complex topics—often overlooked in male breast cancer—could be explored openly. These sessions connected survivors with surgeons, geneticists, exercise physiologists, and integrative health experts, fostering dialogue that transcended borders. As the Alliance’s global reach expanded, so did the need for a more intentional educational arc—one that follows the patient journey from diagnosis through recovery and beyond.
The 2026 Quarterly Webinar Series answers that call. Each session is strategically timed, thoughtfully themed, and anchored by respected voices across medicine and advocacy. Together, they form a year-long narrative of care.
The 2026 Webinar Lineup
Spring | March 19 – Breast Reconstruction
Reconstruction is often framed through a female lens, leaving male patients navigating unanswered questions. This session addresses surgical options, physical outcomes, and the psychological dimensions of reconstruction—bringing clarity to an often under-discussed aspect of male breast cancer care.
Summer | June 17 – Exercise Oncology
Movement is medicine—but how, when, and why matters. The summer session explores the science of exercise oncology, examining how tailored physical activity supports recovery, reduces recurrence risk, and restores confidence after treatment.
Fall | September 24 – Genetics
Genetic testing and inherited risk are central to male breast cancer awareness. This webinar delves into genetic counseling, family implications, and emerging research—equipping patients and families with knowledge that informs prevention and vigilance.
Winter | December 9 – Detoxification
Closing the year, MBCGA turns its focus to detoxification and environmental health—an area of growing concern among survivors. This session examines toxic burden, post-treatment resilience, and practical strategies for supporting long-term health.
Voices That Matter
The strength of the series lies in its speakers—leaders who bridge science and lived experience. Featured guests include Dr. Leslie Montoya and Dan Root, representing Detox of Cancer and offering insight into recovery-focused detoxification strategies. Genetic expertise and clinical perspective are brought by Dr. Sarah Pearson and Dr. Leslie Waltke, while survivor-advocate Harvey Singer grounds each discussion in real-world experience.
Education That Serves the Community
Topic selection for the 2026 series was guided by one principle: relevance. Each theme reflects recurring questions from the MBCGA community—questions about identity after surgery, strength after treatment, inherited risk, and environmental exposures. By aligning expert knowledge with survivor priorities, the Alliance ensures that education remains practical, compassionate, and actionable.
Looking Ahead
The MBCGA Quarterly Webinar Series is more than a calendar of events—it is a declaration. A declaration that male breast cancer education deserves depth, continuity, and global reach. As 2026 unfolds, these webinars will not only inform but also connect, inspire, and empower a worldwide community committed to better outcomes and brighter futures.
"Education changes lives. In 2026, MBCGA is making sure it reaches everyone who needs it."
The 2025 MBCGA Medical Summit marked a defining moment in global male breast cancer education—breaking attendance records and raising the bar for clinical, survivor, and advocacy-driven collaboration.
Held October 24–25, the Summit convened an extraordinary international faculty of oncologists, researchers, rehabilitation specialists, caregivers, survivors, and industry leaders, all united by one mission: advancing equity and outcomes for men with breast cancer. From groundbreaking discussions on circulating tumor DNA, image-guided tumor treatment, and advanced metastatic care, to powerful sessions on survivorship, mental health, caregiving, and rehabilitation, the program delivered depth, relevance, and humanity in equal measure.Hosted by MBCGA Founder and CEO Cheri Ambrose, the event showcased why education is not optional—it is lifesaving. With global participation surpassing all previous years and strong engagement from institutional partners and sponsors, the 2025 Summit affirmed MBCGA’s role as a trusted convener and catalyst for progress. This was not just a conference—it was a turning point.
