Al's Comment:
Starts tonight!
This year's Brain Tumor Awareness Month Webinar series promises to be engaging and informative for all attendees. We host these webinars in our Zoom room, which offers the best platform for interactive participation and asking questions. However, we also attempt to simulcast the sessions on Facebook, as our Zoom room has a capacity limit of 500 attendees, which we've exceeded on a few occasions.
Please note that last year, Facebook unexpectedly terminated our webinar and deleted the recording. Therefore, we recommend joining our Zoom room at virtualtrials.org/webinar first and using Facebook only as a backup option!
