Abstracts are welcomed on all scientific topics related to the biology of brain cancers and the development of novel diagnostic and therapeutic approaches. They should contain only new and unpublished material and must be submitted electronically by the abstract deadline. The selection of material for oral and poster presentations will be made by the organizers and individual session chairs. The status (talk/poster) of abstracts will be posted on our website as soon as decisions have been made by the organizers.

We are eager to have as many young people as possible attend since they are likely to benefit most from this meeting. We have applied for funds from industry to partially support graduate students and postdocs. Please apply in writing via email to Jess Palma and state your financial needs. Preference will be given to those submitting abstracts.
