Problem

Each year approximately 18,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with primary brain cancer – a particularly devastating, virulent disease. Each year, nearly 13,000 people die from brain tumors. Today, researchers have new hope for finding better treatments and, ultimately, a cure for brain cancer. To advance, they must have resources to further their ideas.

The Gift

Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure brings together researchers, clinicians, the biotech and pharmaceutical industry and government to fund research that translates promising laboratory successes into clinically meaningful improvements for patients. This approach is designed to provide innovative researchers with the support required to make critical translational breakthroughs.

Accelerate Brain Cancer Cure fund proposals that will have an immediate impact, and we work actively and partner with investigators to overcome obstacles in achieving the goal of the research.

Your support for one hour of a translational researcher's time will help accelerate a cure and bring new hope to patients with brain cancer.
