Glioma Longitudinal AnalySiS (GLASS) Consortium

The Glioma Longitudinal AnalySiS (GLASS) consortium comprises neuropathologists, clinicians, scientists, and bioinformaticians from leading institutions across the globe. GLASS was inaugurated in 2015, to accelerate efforts to (1) understand glioma tumor evolution and (2) expose therapeutic vulnerabilities.

GLASS aims to achieve these goals through molecular profiling of tumor specimens obtained at multiple time points along the course of glioma disease, in the context of precise clinical annotation and imaging. Towards that purpose, GLASS has curated a molecular Data Resource that is publicly accessible. The current Data Resource includes multi-timepoint molecular profiles from more than 400 patients with a glioma.
