INTERNATIONAL DAY OF BRAIN TUMORS

07/06/2022

June 8th is the International Day of Brain Tumors, with the aim of raising awareness among the population about the causes, risks and treatment of brain tumors, as well as providing solidarity to patients and their families.

Brain tumors are masses generated by the growth of abnormal cells in the brain, and may originate from genetic and environmental causes.

We can all contribute in biomedical research progress. If you wish you can donate the left over material after diagnosis obtained during the treatment process (blood samples, biological liquids and tissue) for carrying out biomedical research without causing you any additional inconvenience. There is a network of biobanks managing human biological samples for biomedical research.
