UCLA Neurosurgery Connections: Brain Tumor Edition - May 2022

Precision Medicine, Collaboration, and Patient-Centered Care

Brain cancer is one of the most difficult conditions to effectively treat, and unfortunately ranks among the deadliest of malignancies. Glioblastoma, one of the most common brain tumors in adults, is particularly lethal. Current standard therapies such as surgical resection, radiation, and chemotherapy have not significantly improved survival rates for patients with glioblastoma. However, the Brain Tumor Center at UCLA seeks to challenge these statistics and carve out a more hopeful future for brain cancer patients through significant contribution to the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of brain cancer.

Nathan's Story: Resective Epilepsy Surgery for Tuberous Sclerosis Complex, UCLA Neurosurgery Update and More
We first started to notice Nathan's seizures when he was 10 weeks old.

Nathan is our first child, and having spent very little time with newborns prior to having our son, both my husband and I found many things about caring for our child unexpected and, at times, frightening.
