Information and Support for Health Care Professionals

To help support you, your patients and their families, there are several free resources, workshops and awards for health care professionals who work with those affected by a brain tumour such as in the fields of neuroscience, neuro-oncology and psychosocial oncology.

These tools include networking opportunities at events and learning about what is happening in the field of brain tumours through the bimonthly e-newsletter.

For information about any of the opportunities for Health Care Professionals, please contact:
