This website is an independent resource, developed by the Horizons in Neuro-Oncology (HINO) team in the UK. Initial development was supported by Dr Matt Williams and Lillie Pakzad-Shahabi, with grant funding from Novocure to support ongoing work.

HINO maintains editorial independence. While the team collaborates with a range of healthcare organisations and receives grant support from Novocure, all content is created and reviewed by the HINO team and reflects their combined clinical expertise, professional experience, and lived experience as patients and caregivers.

While content is based on UK clinical practice, much of the information may be relevant to international readers. It is provided for general guidance and should not replace medical advice from your own healthcare team.

Please use this information to support discussions with your local oncology team, or see our advice on obtaining a second opinion.
