The International Brain Tumour Alliance (IBTA) was established during the conference of the World Federation of Neuro Oncology held at Edinburgh (UK) in May 2005.

It seeks to be an alliance of the support, advocacy and information groups for brain tumour patients and carers in different countries and also includes researchers, scientists, clinicians and allied health professionals who work in the area of brain tumours.

Greater Collaboration Greater Knowledge Greater Hope
     
Some of the fifty people from eleven countries who attended the inaugural meeting of IBTA held on 7 May 2005 in Edinburgh. They include people with a brain tumour, their carers, scientists, nurses, health professionals, researchers, and former carers.

Notes: IBTA is aware that in the United States "tumour" is spelled "tumor" and will use that spelling for printed materials directed to that region. It was also the intention of the founding meeting that we seek to represent all tumours of the central nervous system. As is the practice in the scientific literature and clinical use, we use the words "brain tumour", not "brain cancer".
