My Dad is currently battling a GBM. Do you have any advice for a web dev who wants to get his toe in the door of understanding the computational biology of gliomas?
I don't expect I'll be able to do much, but all of the treatments we've undertaken so far seem very dated (not able to resect, one round of radiation, temodar+avastin for the last year, just switched to CCNU+avastin). I'd love to know where the state of the art is at and know how to nudge/prompt his oncologists to be looking at it through that lens.
My email is in my profile, feel free to reach out privately.
