New York may be experiencing an arctic blast, but that didn’t stop us from joining our Neurooncology and Clinical Research colleagues at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory for our annual Clinical Research Retreat. ❄️🔬It was a beautiful winter day filled with inspiring discussions on the latest advancements in brain tumor biology, as we collaborate to elevate our bench research in the pursuit of a cure for brain cancer and other CNS diseases. 🧠 #lenoxhillneurosurgery #lenoxhillhospital #lenoxhill #northwellhealth #northwelllife #coldspringharborlaboratory #clinicalresearch #clinicaltrials #braintumorcente #braintumor #spinetumor #neurosurgery #neurosurgeon #madeforthis #raisinghealth

#GBMNews ⚠️ | A Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech team published a paper in APL Bioengineering in May stemming from past research on high-frequency irreversible electroporation, better known as H-FIRE. H-FIRE is a minimally invasive process that uses non-thermal electrical pulses to break down cancer cells. Research indicates that the conventional square waveforms show good blood-brain barrier disruption, but this study finds even better blood-brain barrier disruption with a new modality called burst sine wave electroporation (B-SWE), which could allow more cancer-fighting drugs to access the brain. 🔗Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/e4FAtxjt #glioblastoma #braincancer #glioblastomamultiforme #braintumor #braincancerawareness #glioma #braintumorawareness #neurooncology #neurosurgery #neurosurgeon #neurosurgeons #medicine #cancercharity #gbm4 #gbm #cancer #gbmcommunity #noonefightsalone #neurological

Big News from the Children’s Brain Tumor Project! 🌟 We’re thrilled to welcome Ziad Hassan to Dr. Greenfield’s team as a Postdoctoral Associate! Originally from Lebanon, Ziad brings a PhD in Cellular Neuroscience from Lorraine University in France and a passion for advancing pediatric brain tumor research. Ziad’s work focuses on CRISPR screens for rare pediatric brain tumors, aiming to identify gene dependencies that can be targeted with FDA-approved drugs. This cutting-edge approach has the potential to fast-track personalized treatments and bring renewed hope to children and families facing these challenging diagnoses. 💛 We’re excited to see the incredible progress Ziad will make with the CBTP team! #curechildhoodcancer #pediatricbraintumors #CBTP #braintumorresearch #pediatricneurosurgery #research #DIPG #GliomatosisCerebri #ThalamicGlioma #craniopharyngioma #rarebraintumors #weillcornell #WCM #neurosurgery #curekidsbraintumors

I am thrilled to announce the publication of my latest article in Neurosurgical Review, a prestigious Q1 journal with an impact factor of 2.5. This achievement would not have been possible without the incredible teamwork and dedication of my co-authors and collaborators. Our article explores the impact of stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) on patients with gastrointestinal-originated brain metastases, highlighting its efficacy in achieving high local tumor control rates (88%) and improved short-term survival outcomes. Despite poor long-term survival, this systematic review and meta-analysis emphasizes SRS as a valuable treatment option and calls for further research to optimize patient selection and integrate novel systemic therapies. #Neurosurgery #Radiosurgery Full text link: https://lnkd.in/dqaQJpF5

🌎️ In the United States, there are roughly 110 million adolescents and young adults (AYAs) between the ages of 15 and 39 years old. Of those, about 208,620 are living with a primary brain or spinal cord tumor. 🧠 Despite being relatively rare, these tumors, also known as central nervous system (CNS) tumors, are the most prevalent cancer in this age range. 2️⃣ They are also the second leading cause of cancer-related death in AYAs—and the leading cause of death for those between 15 and 24 years old. Learn more key trends from this year's statistical report highlighting key trends in adolescents and young adults with brain tumors: https://lnkd.in/e8Y3KbVz #glioblastoma #braincancer #glioblastomamultiforme #braintumor #braincancerawareness #glioma #braintumorawareness #neurooncology #neurosurgery #neurosurgeon #neurosurgeons #medicine #cancercharity #gbm #cancer #gbmcommunity #noonefightsalone #neurological

#WARRIORWEDNESDAY: Your story with #glioblastoma. Today, we share Doron's story. My name is Doron, and I'm 27 years old from Sydney, Australia. In April of 2023, I returned from the United States with daily headaches. Nine days after my return, I had a seizure and was admitted to the hospital, where I underwent brain surgery and was diagnosed with a glioblastoma brain tumor. Since then, I have undergone radiotherapy and chemotherapy. My name means gift or present in Hebrew. Now, more than ever, I am choosing to live in the present and appreciate the things I once took for granted. I love spending time with my family, friends, and animals and helping others in my community. My diagnosis has given me the opportunity to shed light on this condition and raise awareness in the hope that there will be a better outcome for myself and others living with brain cancer. This story was submitted with Doron's written consent. We'd love to hear your story and share it with our supportive GBM community. To be included in our series, please email us at [email protected] or send us a direct message. #braincancer #glioblastomamultiforme #braintumor #braincancerawareness #glioma #braintumorawareness #neurooncology #neurosurgery #neurosurgeon #neurosurgeons #medicine #cancercharity #gbm4 #gbm #cancer #instascience #gbmcommunity #noonefightsalone #neurological
