It is not the intention of
BrainLife
to provide specific medical advice
but rather to provide users with information to better understand
their health and their diagnosed disorders.
Specific
medical advice will not be provided, and BrainLife
urges you to consult with a
qualified physician for diagnosis and for answers to your personal
questions.
BrainLife
is a personal site with
no external sources of funds.
It does not accept advertising.
All the
expenses are directly borne by the editors.
The editors
indicate no potential conflicts of interest.
The use of
BrainLife
is free of charge.
A first collection of sources was
initiated in December 1999 and a website named "Glioblastoma
Database and Newsletter"
was founded.
BrainLife
became fully
operational on April 17, 2003.
Both
the websites were
jointly
designed by Elisabetta
and Giovanni Camporeale.
The website is continuously
updated with peer-reviewed sources.
The new entries are
collected in issues of Brain
Tumor Reports .
A
free E-mail
Alert Service allows
all visitors to BrainLife
to be notified via e-mail when new
issues go online.
