The Center for Neuro-Oncology provides expert care for patients with primary and metastatic brain tumors, spinal cord cancer, and neurologic
complications from cancer and its treatment. Care is coordinated by a team of clinicians specializing in neuro-oncology, neurosurgery, radiation
oncology, psychosocial oncology, nursing, neuropathology, neuropsychology, social work, and genetic counseling. Through our multidisciplinary
clinic, patients have the benefit of meeting with our team of surgical, medical, and radiation oncologists at one time and in one place to develop
individualized treatment plans.
Clincal care is supported by a strong clinical and basic science research program. The clinical research program is a leader in neuro-oncology clinical
trials, including immunotherapy, targeted therapies and inhibitors of angiogenesis. In addition, by routinely testing patients with glioblastoma and
anaplastic gliomas for common mutations, we are able to tailor treatment plans for patients. The basic science program aims to enhance the
understanding of neurologic cancers, including why tumors develop in the brain, and the mechanisms that drive tumor growth and resistance to
therapy. Our investigators also collaborate with the North American Brain Tumor Consortium, National Cancer Institute, and pharmaceutical
companies to develop new approaches to the treatment of brain and spinal cord tumors.
