Urge Congress to support the BRAIN Act in 2025

The bipartisan BRAIN Act (H.R.2767, S.1330) is the first legislation designed to address the unique challenges faced by brain tumor researchers, clinicians, patients, and survivors. By advancing research, improving treatment access through public awareness of clinical trials and biomarker testing, and enhancing survivorship care, this bill aims to drive critical progress in the fight against brain tumors. Urge your members of Congress to support the BRAIN Act and help secure better treatments, improved quality of life, and a path toward a cure.

Tell Congress to Protect NIH Funding for Brain Tumor Research

The National Institutes of Health (NIH), and its National Cancer Institute (NCI), are the largest funders of brain tumor research in the world. Additionally, the NIH/NCI Clinical Center provides important access to second opinions and clinical trials for patients with brain tumors. Together, these agencies serve as the backbone for scientific and medical innovation in the brain tumor field, funding discovery research that serves as the foundation for breakthroughs in therapeutic strategies as well as supporting clinical research that helps develop, evaluate, and provide access to cutting-edge treatments.
