Brain Tumour Research Fund

The Brain Tumour Research Fund is part of The University of Glasgow’s Medical Fund.

The Brain Tumour Research Fund is extremely important because it helps support smaller research projects that would not necessarily get funding from these larger organisations. These smaller projects often produce very valuable findings. These findings greatly increase the chances of us getting large scale funding to take the projects forward and means a small donation can eventually lead to an important research project that has a real chance of improving outcomes for patients.
The fund has recently been awarded new grants from Cancer Research UK and the Chief Scientist’s Office that will support exciting new laboratory research looking at potential new treatments for glioblastoma, which is the most aggressive form of brain tumour.
