Adult Glioblastoma: Best Approaches to a Challenging Diagnosis

Date:6/1/2009

Complimentary Continuing Education Lectures for Healthcare Professionals

VOORHEES, N.J., June 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Adult glioblastoma is a challenging diagnosis which carries a poor prognosis and appears to be associated with genetic alterations of several critical signaling and tumor suppressor pathways. While current treatment options are not curative, there is hope for improving outcomes for patients. In order to do this, healthcare professionals must have an understanding of glioblastoma chromosomal risk factors, new radiation therapy techniques, and strategies to overcome obstacles related to blood-brain barrier penetration.

To address the need for current education on adult glioblastoma, Robert Michael Educational Institute LLC (RMEI) and Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM) are jointly sponsoring complimentary educational lectures at medical institutions across the United States. These lectures, which are accredited for physicians, pharmacists, and nurses, are supported by an educational grant from Schering-Plough.

The faculty for these lectures are experts in neurology, neuro-oncology, and radiation oncology from leading medical institutions. The Chairperson is Marc C. Chamberlain, MD, Professor of Neurology & Neurological Surgery and Chief of the Division of Neuro-Oncology at the University of Washington in Seattle, Washington.

Healthcare professionals can visit www.RMEI.com/GBLectures, call toll-free 1-877-499-2323, or email GBLectures@RMEI.com to schedule a lecture at their institution today.
