*Brain cancer is the leading cause of solid tumor death in children. Current drug/surgical treatments are ineffective, highly toxic and cause debilitating, permanent side effects. Project Brain Child will jump-start the development of a worldwide children’s genomic brain tumor registry. This registry cold help spare children the outdated, toxic, punishing AND ineffective treatments that they must now endure, allowing researchers to target existing ‘smart’ drugs to specific brain tumors. Your vote could save children’s lives AND provide a breakthrough for both children’s and adult’s cancer research.
