Brief description Glioblastomas are the most common and lethal brain tumours and 5 years after diagnosis only 20% of patients diagnosed with a glioblastoma will be alive. The poor survival rate is due to the ability of these tumours to extensively penetrate into the surrounding healthy brain tissue making complete surgical removal very difficult. Our research aims to discover how the glioblastoma cells can penetrate neighbouring brain tissue.
