2019 Research Grant Awardees - Feature Grant

In 2019, a new Feature Grant was introduced to the research program.

Two Canadian researchers have been awarded funds to further investigate improving quality of life for patients, survivors and caregivers across Canada affected by a brain tumour.

Congratulations to each of the researchers. Thank you for all of the work that you do to bring hope to everyone on the journey with a brain tumour.

Next spring, please watch for the 2020 feature grant which will have a different focus.
