May is Brain Tumour Awareness Month in Canada. Every year, over six thousand Canadians are diagnosed with primary brain tumors. One in every six of those brain tumors is glioblastoma, a highly aggressive cancer with a five-year survival rate of less than 6% in patients over the age of 40. This May, we are supporting #BrainTumourWalk, hosted by the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada, and the #GalaForBrainCancerResearch of Brain Cancer Canada. We are proud to work with the brain cancer community in Canada including all our advocacy partners to raise awareness for those affected by glioblastoma and other brain cancers, including: Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada Brain Cancer Canada Quebec Cancer Coalition Canadian Organization for Rare Disorders Regroupement québécois des maladies orphelines Life Saving Therapies Network Coalition Priorité Cancer Save Your Skin Foundation Canadian Cancer Society
