Gliotrain

Exploiting GLIOblastoma intractability to address European research TRAINing needs translational brain tumor research, cancer systems medicine and integrative multi-omics

Funding period:

01.09.2017 - 31.08.2021

Project description:

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent, aggressive and lethal of all brain tumours. It has a universally fatal prognosis with 85% of patients dying within two years. New treatment options and effective precision medicine therapies are urgently required. This can only be achieved by focused multi-sectoral industry-academia collaborations in newly emerging, innovative research disciplines. GLIOTRAIN will exploit the intractability of GBM to address European applied biomedical research training needs.
