The Childhood Brain Tumor Foundation (CBTF) has funded state-of-the-art research and supported conferences for pediatric brain tumors over the past 17 years. Grant Applications submitted during our open Grant Application period are are reviewed thoroughly by our dedicated team of renown scientific advisors. CBTF selects only the highest quality research for pediatric brain tumors.

• Our process is based on National Institutes of Health review standards, led by Dr. Roger J. Packer, founding advisor:
• Advisors are assigned applications to ensure there are no conflicts of interest.
• Our dedicated advisors voluntarily review, score, and summarize each application.
• The Advisors hold a teleconference call to discuss the applications
• They make recommendations to CBTF.
• The CBTF Board discusses the recommendations and overall review summaries and comments before voting on which applications will be selected for funding.

Each year, we receive many outstanding applications. It is through the support of private and public donations that CBTF is able to fund this grapnt program.

With your support, together, we will strive to find a cure for children's brain tumors.

Look for an update to the Researchers area, coming soon!
