Cancers | Brain Tumor Awareness Month

May is designated as Brain Tumor Awareness Month, with various global activities that highlight and increase awareness of brain tumor for research support and development. We would like to take this opportunity to extend our appreciation to all the researchers who have contributed to the fight against this disease. In particular, we would like to share some of the high-quality and innovative research findings in the field of brain tumor, published in Cancers (ISSN: 2072-6694). We hope this announcement will provide useful information for this field.
