Pediatric Neuro-Oncology Symposium - In Memory of Dr. Marnie Rose

This symposium will attract the leading international experts in childhood brain tumors. It is designed as one and a half days of intense interactive sessions for participants to discuss the current concepts, challenges, and ongoing research of multimodality treatment for various childhood brain tumors. Scientists, physicians, and trainees from across the country will have an opportunity to share thoughts, discuss current issues, and initiate much needed phase I trials in recurrent/refractory pediatric brain tumors. This meeting will also present a unique platform to gather subspecialty experts in pediatric brain tumors, allowing scientists and physicians to share information and to define research or clinical endeavors for the future. The challenges, solutions, and novel concepts discussed will encourage attendees to prepare strategies for new translational research and to profile possible new therapies.
