Although they are relatively rare, brain and spinal cord tumors are the most prevalent cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) between the ages of 15 and 39 years old. A recent report highlights key trends in this population. go.nih.gov/hWgOjAm #AYAcsm #CNStumors

The 5-year survival rate for malignant primary brain & spinal cord tumors is just 36%. Brain cancer is rare—but its impact is deep. This #BrainCancerAwarenessMonth, we raise our voices for research, support & hope. 💙 #BrainTumorAwareness

New #SKResearch in Nature Cancer shows molecular testing on #gliomas can guide more precise treatment 🔬 1,500 tumours studied 🧬 Shared genetic profiles across ages ‼Suggests treatment should be based on tumour molecular origin, not age at diagnosis ⤵️sickkids.ca/en/news/archiv…

When we talk about brain cancer, we often hear numbers: 📈 9 Canadians are diagnosed every day with a cancerous brain tumour. 📈 Brain cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in children and young adults under 40. 📈 Survival rates remain among the lowest of all cancers.
