Monitoring diffuse midline gliomas with liquid biopsies
Researchers have found a way to monitor diffuse midline gliomas (formerly known as DIPG) by measuring tumour biomarkers through a blood test

New research uncovers a molecule that halts DIPG tumour growth
A team of researchers from Northwestern University, USA have identified a molecule that could be used to inhibit the growth of the most fatal paediatric brain tumour, diffuse pontine intrinsic glioma (DIPG).
