We’re proud to share that the Brain Cancer Support & Solutions Alliance (BCSSA) will present an oral abstract at the Society for Neuro-Oncology (SNO) Annual Meeting on Sunday, November 15th.
ㅤ
Titled “Virtual navigation as an equity strategy in neuro-oncology: early data from the Brain Cancer Support and Solutions Alliance,” the presentation will highlight early data on how virtual navigation can help connect brain tumor patients and families with the resources, guidance, and support they need.
ㅤ
We’re grateful to be part of this collaborative effort to help bridge gaps in support and make resources more accessible to the brain tumor community! #SNO2026 @cancercommons @MusellaFoundation

November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the incredible people who stand beside their loved ones through a brain tumor diagnosis and beyond.
ㅤ
Dr. Thomas Nelson of the UCSF Brain Tumor Center reminds us that caregivers are the unsung heroes of the brain tumor community. From navigating appointments and treatment decisions to offering comfort on the hardest days, caregivers give so much of themselves to support the people they love.

Our partners at Pinpoint Patient Recruiting, a market research recruitment company, are searching for people who have been diagnosed with glioblastoma (GBM), or their care partner, to participate in an online survey about their experiences.
ㅤ
You may qualify to complete the survey if you, or the person you care for, are over the age of 22 and:
- were newly diagnosed or had a recurrence within the last 3 to 20 months
- are currently receiving or pursuing treatment for GBM
- are a resident of the United States
ㅤ
The objective of the survey is to learn more about the experiences of people living with GBM and their opinions on treatments and care. Qualified participants who complete a 30-minute online survey will be rewarded for their time. Please note that all information and responses will remain confidential.
ㅤ
To see if you qualify for the study or to get more information, please visit

November is National Family Caregivers Month, a time to recognize the family members and friends who show up for their loved ones through a brain tumor diagnosis. Caregiving comes with challenges that are not always seen, and finding the right support can make a meaningful difference.
ㅤ
Head for the Cure’s Path to Hope website offers resources to help caregivers navigate their role, care for their own well-being, and feel less alone along the way. This month, we’re celebrating the people who give so much to others and reminding them that support is available for them, too.

24,500 people. 1,000 teams. $3.7 million raised. 💙
ㅤ
But behind every number is a story. A survivor celebrating another year. A caregiver showing up for someone they love. A healthcare hero caring for patients. A family honoring someone they’ve lost.
ㅤ
From coast to coast, our 2026 5K Run/Walk season brought our brain tumor community together to remember, celebrate, and fight for a future without brain cancer.
ㅤ
Funds raised will help fund vital research, clinical trials, and patient programs nationwide. Every mile we walked and every dollar raised has the potential to make a difference for someone facing brain cancer today and for families who will face it tomorrow.
ㅤ
Thank you for showing up, walking with us, and making every mile matter!

A brain tumor diagnosis can change everything, but for young adults, it can feel especially isolating.
ㅤ
At 25, Rhiannon was starting her nursing career, building her future and looking forward to what was next. Then, in 2025, a diagnosis of diffuse midline glioma changed the path she had imagined for herself.
ㅤ
Today, Rhiannon is using her experience to support other young adults facing brain cancer. As a Head for the Cure Ambassador and an advocate for the AYA brain tumor community, she’s helping others feel a little less alone.
