New Insights into Diagnosing and Treating Medulloblastoma

This webinar is part of the 2014 online learning series 'What you need to know about brain tumours'

This free webinar will be of particular interest to pediatric-focused health care professionals, as well as family members and survivors of medulloblastoma.

In this webinar you will learn about how a medulloblastoma brain tumour is treated in children and whether these principles can apply to adults. Following this overview, there will be a review of the recent molecular classification of this most common malignant pediatric brain tumour and why these discoveries provide a framework to devise new treatment protocols.

By participating in this webinar you will learn:
- Understanding of the multidisciplinary treatment of medulloblastoma
- Comparisons of pediatric and adult medulloblastoma
- Understanding of the new molecular sub-classification and its application to new treatments
