Brain tumors strike men, women, and children of any race, and at any age.
Brain tumors are the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in children and young adults under 19, surpassing leukemia.
Approximately 700,000 Americans are living with a primary brain tumor. This year, over 87,000 people will be diagnosed with primary malignant and nonmalignant tumors.
More so than any other cancer, brain tumors can have life-altering psychological, cognitive, behavioral, and physical effects.
There is hope. Scientists and researchers are more poised than ever to understand brain tumors, develop treatments, and find cures.
