Text of Note

Covers three areas of research in brain tumors such as animal models for brain tumors, including spontaneous occurrence of brain tumors in mammals, transgenic models in rodents and transplant models; prognostic factors and biomarkers; and, therapeutic targets and targeting approaches to brain tumors.
