Read about our GBM Bill of Rights and OBB advocacy campaigns to improve treatment and care of people with GBM. Create change with us
In June 2017 OurBrainBank’s founder Jessica Morris attended the New York launch of the Biden Cancer Initiative, the philanthropic scheme set up by Joe and Jill Biden in honour of Joe’s son Beau who had died of GBM. She talked about OBB’s mission to move GBM from terminal to treatable, powered by patients. “We need a sense of urgency!” she told him.

We believe that the key to future personalised GBM treatments – and longer, quality life expectancy – lies in the genomic sequencing of patients’ tumors. We will strive for EVERY GBM patient to be offered the chance to have samples of their tumor taken and sent for sequencing.
Support OurBrainBank Executive Director Kelli Duprey as she hikes with her dog Wrigley to raise funds for OurBrainBank for Glioblastoma! Kelli will be hiking in the stunning mountains for Telluride, Colorado to raise funds and awareness about glioblastoma, the deadliest form for brain cancer.
Rod Nordland wrote about his experience with glioblastoma in his book “Waiting for the Monsoon.”
OurBrainBank is at ASCO2025 presenting a poster on inequities in glioblastoma treatment. Visit our booth and say hello to Executive Director Kelli Duprey.
OurBrainBank, in collaboration with a team from Imperial College London, is conducting innovative research to better understand the experience of adult brain tumour patients from the UK, some of whom may be accessing treatment outside of the standard care that is offered by the NHS.
MAY is Brain Tumor Awareness Month: give, share, raise awareness about glioblastoma
