Gliomas—tumors of glial cell origin—account for the majority of primary malignant brain tumors, and they are often associated with a very poor prognosis. It is hoped that by identifying genetic, behavioral, environmental and developmental contributors to glioma risk, and understanding how these various factors interact, the disease burden can ultimately be reduced.
