Professor Andreas Hottinger, appointed Associate Professor at the Faculty of Biology and Medicine (FBM) on November 1, 2023, will deliver his inaugural lecture during Brain Week 2025. As head of the oncology and neurology departments at CHUV and director of the Lundin Brain Tumor Research Center, he will address current treatments and future therapeutic options for brain tumors.
Brain tumors, caused by uncontrolled cell growth, continue to affect an increasing number of people. Their treatment remains challenging due to the brain’s complexity. This lecture will cover existing therapies, new research developments, and the challenges in fighting brain tumors.
The lecture will be preceded by introductions from Pr Lorenz Hirt, Pr Solange Peters, and Pr Roger Stupp.
The event is free to attend and will be followed by a reception.
