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
