Read Our Story
Action Objectives
Our strategic goals for advancing brain cancer research across Europe
Non-Invasive Biomarkers in Brain Cancer
Developing and validating biomarkers for early detection, prognosis, and recurrence in pediatric and adult brain cancer.
Advanced Preclinical Models for Brain Cancer Pathogenesis
Developing a 3-tier strategy using cell culture, 3D bio-systems (organoids, bioprinting), and in vivo models to study brain cancer pathogenesis.
Single-Cell Approaches for Tumor Profiling and Stratification
Advancing tumor profiling and patient stratification with single-cell technologies, focusing on gene dysregulation patterns and dynamic glioblastoma stem cell transitions for therapeutic interventions.
Multimodal Omics Integration and Pan-European Brain Cancer Platform
Developing integrative omics approaches, mathematical models for RT optimization, and a pan-European brain cancer database and biobank to advance research and clinical practice.
Clinical-Driven Advances in Radiotherapy for Brain Cancer
Developing novel radiotherapy approaches and recommendations, guided by clinical expertise to maximize patient outcomes and clinical impact.
Innovative Dissemination and Stakeholder Engagement
Creating novel methods to disseminate research outcomes and engage stakeholders across science networks, clinicians, patients, policymakers, industry, and the public.
