The first conference “Neuro-oncology Meets Neurosciences” will take place from December 9 to 10, 2024 in the amphitheater of the Broca Nouvelle – Aquitaine Center, Campus Carreire University of Bordeaux

Glioblastoma is the most aggressive brain tumor characterized by a high proliferation rate, necrosis, microvascular proliferation and tumor infiltration. Unfortunately, the mechanisms related to the development of glioblastoma are not yet fully understood. It has been shown that the tumor microenvironment of glioblastoma partially controls tumor growth and invasion, and constitutes an interesting therapeutic target. A set of recent studies highlights an important role of the normal neuronal brain environment in the progression of glioblastoma.

This conference aims to bring together neuro-oncology researchers and neuroscientists to highlight these new developments at the interface between these two disciplines. The conference is open to the general public with a half-day specifically dedicated to the Patients/Medical Staff/Researchers triptych (in French).

The organizing committee: Andreas Bikfalvi, Valentin Nagerl, Thomas Daubon, Ahmad Sharanek, Thomas Mathivet, Lucie Brisson, Antonio Pagano Zottola
