10 children and teenagers are diagnosed with a brain tumour every week in the UK, that's more than one a day. Knowing the signs and symptoms could really make a difference. @HeadSmartUK is here to help. headsmart.org.uk

Sadly not quite the same atmosphere as a real Christmas party, but huge thanks to my group for being good sports at our virtual Glühwein/Bingo night yesterday. And many thanks for all of your hard work and dedication throughout this challenging year 👍🏻 . @DKFZ @KiTZ_HD

A new study with our friends and collaborators @sahm_lab shows that clear cell meningiomas are molecularly distinct from other MNG, with pathognomonic (& often germline) mutations in the #SWISNF component SMARCE1.
Sahm Lab@sahm_lab

Our new paper on clear cell meningiomas is out: rdcu.be/ccfhm Were really surprised to find this subtype so epigenetically different from all other meningioma variants. Thanks to all contributors @HdNeurooncology @uniklinik_hd @UniHeidelberg @DKFZ @KiTZ_HD and beyond!

Congratulations and ありがとうございました to @ki212ncc and colleagues for hosting a fantastic hybrid #ISPNO2020 meeting ispno2020.umin.jp/index.html. Honored to be invited to give the pediatric low-grade #glioma keynote. Really a shame not to be able to join in person 🇯🇵 !

Good progress being made overall, but big disparities across cancer types. Major improvements for e.g. lung ♂️and breast ♀️, but sadly almost none in #braincancer – one of the top causes of years of life lost despite being rarer than many other cancers. Work still to be done!
EFPIA@EFPIA

The number of potential years of working life lost due to cancer in Europe has decreased since 1995. #WeWontRest until everyone in Europe who is touched by cancer, can look forward with hope and optimism #EUCancerPlan bit.ly/2HqkLof
