I’m not sure grouping pontine gliomas #DIPG together with midline gliomas #DMG is totally appropriate. I know, for the most part, they have the same H3 mut, but I think the regional differences provide unique treatments challenges that we have a limited handle on! Perspectives?

I mean really???

#childhoodcancerawareness Grant Bauman submitted some compelling and creative ideas on how raise awareness and funds for DIPG! His hard work paid off and he earned the annual OLG $1000 scholarship. Thanks Grant, you deserve it! #waylandswarriors #dipg

Hello! Are you a survivor of #childhoodcancer or a parent of a survivor? I am currently seeking Canadian survivors (age 8-18) and parents with lived experience to partner with me on a project examining worry about cancer recurrence 1/2

If there were a stronger word than urgent, it should be applied to finding a cure for Kids #DIPG Brain Cancer. We have 190 cosponsors for H. Res. 114. We need 28 more for a floor vote. Please help bring hope to these kids in dire need. bit.ly/114c-c @RepTrey

If there were a stronger word than urgent, it should be applied to finding a cure for Kids #DIPG Brain Cancer. We have 190 cosponsors for H. Res. 114. We must have 28 more to require a floor vote. We need you to cosponsor right now so we can have a fair vote Rick W. Allen

Our kids are worth it!

DIPG is so rare that most doctors have never seen it, forcing patients to go to major medical centers where the neuroscience team has experience with this form of cancer. On #RareDiseaseDay, we reinforce the importance of funding research to find the cure to DIPG & all cancers.

It's International Brain Tumor Week. Despite numerous clinical trials, outcomes of DIPG children continues to remain dismal, with a median survival of only 11 months, while only 10% of #DIPG patients have ≥ 2-yr overall survival (OS) rate. #ChildhoodCancer Happy Quail

Sometimes, at the end of a really hard week, making chocolate-covered marshmallow reindeer with your kids makes everything better🎄❄️⛄️

Just like it was drawn up! Down 2 with 2 seconds left calls for a back to the basket behind the head heave to win it at the buzzer! #SCTop10 SportsCenter

Researchers have found the compound, called ONC201, nearly doubled survival for patients with diffuse midline glioma (DMG) or diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), compared to previous patients CAC2 Happy Quail Amanda Haddock 🧬 #ChildhoodCancer news-medical.net/news/20230817/…

The average lifespan of #ChildhoodCancer survivors treated with chemo is 57. That's 21 years less than the lifespan of an average adult. Today is Childhood Cancer Awareness Wednesday. Use this ribbon and your grandchild's story to spread awareness Awareness=Funding=Research=Cures

Of 35 cancer drugs, only 6 are approved specifically for kids, remaining 29 originally approved for adults & later for children. 10 of the 29, are adult chemo's that were approved in the 50's, 60's, and 70's #ChildhoodCancer isn't rare, but research is. CAC2 Happy Quail

It is the 15-year anniversary of our first (early post-mortem) #DIPG tissue donation… my lab has since received 106 such tumor donations💔. So today, we placed 106 roses, one in honor of each child, and planted 106 seeds, to represent the knowledge gained from each.
