After a short break, we will begin with presentations by our residents of cases of the year. Following the resident presentations, we will discuss the patients who were presented.

2025 Neuro-Oncology Symposium: High-Grade Gliomas and GlioblastomasJun 28, 2025 from 07:30 AM to 01:15 PM— Kentucky Science Center 727 W Main Street, Louisville, KY 40202,
Each year, around 300,000 people around the world are diagnosed with glioblastoma, which is a type of high-grade gliomas. High-Grade Gliomas are an aggressive type of cancer found in the brain or spine. They are fast-growing and can spread quickly, which makes them harder to treat. Research shows there has not been any significant breakthroughs in treatment outcomes since the early 2000’s. There are currently several active clinical trials to help patients with these tumors. During this course, we will take a look at some of those promising trials, as well as advances in pathological/genetic testing, and other advancements in treatment options to treat high-grade gliomas and glioblastomas.
