Overview

The 6th Annual Innovative Approaches to Brain Tumor Management is targeted towards healthcare providers who manage and treat patients with brain tumors. Leading experts in the field will come together to discuss the future of brain tumor management including the progress in personalized medicine and implications of immunotherapy in specializing treatment. The design of this conference is to focus on the future of brain tumor therapy with the goal of improving treatment response rates, outcomes, and overall patient care.

This year's course will take place live via Zoom Webinar.
