Den mest elakartade typen av gliom är glioblastom, som har en mycket dålig prognos.
Orsakerna till varför man får gliom är ofta inte känt, det finns tre faktorer som är etablerade; joniserande strålning, en invers association med (minskad risk vid) astma och allergier samt genetiska faktorer.

Vår forskargrupp försöker förstå varför man får hjärntumör och hur det genetiska landskapet utvecklas från en normal cell till tumör.

Vi använder oss av ett flertal molekylärepidemiologiska metoder såsom registerstudier, genetiska analyser och metabolomik på tumör eller blodprov från patienter som kan vara insamlade både före och efter diagnos.
