About GLIOTRAIN
An estimated 240,000 cases of brain and nervous system tumours are diagnosed every year, worldwide and Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and aggressive brain tumour. New treatment options and effective precision medicine therapies are urgently required. GLIOTRAIN is a multi-sectoral industry-academia collaboration, funded by the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie ITN initiative, that will work to identify novel strategies to treat GBM as well as investigating resistance mechanisms in this devastating disease.
Congratulations to Luxembourg Institute of Health (LIH) researchers and GLIOTRAIN PIs, Prof Dr Simone Niclou (Director of the Department of Oncology and group leader of the NORLUX Neuro-Oncology Laboratory) and Dr Anna Golebiewska (group leader of the NORLUX Neuro-Oncology Laboratory), who received the highly prestigious Outstanding Scientific Achievement award at the Luxembourg National Research Fund (FNR) awards, 2021.
