Biological embodiment of educational attainment and future risk of breast cancer: findings from a French prospective cohort
Educational attainment has a direct impact on biological processes suggesting that the biological embodiment of the social environment could be a potential pathway that mediates the association between educational attainment and health. Further studies are needed to specifically investigate the relationships between socially stratified biomarkers and BC risk.
