International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2026

Celebrating Women Driving Innovation in GLIOMATCH

On the occasion of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science 2026, GLIOMATCH recognises the vital contribution of women researchers across its consortium. Their expertise and dedication are instrumental in advancing tailored immunotherapy approaches to improve clinical outcomes for adults and children with malignant brain tumours. As highlighted in the featured quote from one of the GLIOMATCH researchers, our drive to explore, learn and make things better is what unites us. 

Follow GLIOMATCH on LinkedIn and Facebook for more information on brain tumour research and updates on our milestones towards improving the clinical outcomes of GBM and pHGG.
