Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite our progress in the molecular understanding of brain tumor biology, translating these advances has remained a challenge in the field. As the brain tumor space keeps evolving to leverage new knowledge generated by cutting-edge technologies, including single-cell transcriptomics, advances in spatially resolved approaches, and innovations in nano-carriers and drug-delivery technology, we can expect to see creative solutions being developed to diagnose and treat brain tumors. This Special Issue aims to highlight forward thinking points of view on how to move the field forward as well as showcase innovative research approaches aimed at improving diagnosis and therapy for brain tumors.
