The CERN Foundation is a collaborative network with a commitment to connecting patients and caregivers – in addition to medical providers – who deal with ependymoma. This section of our site is dedicated to helping anyone affected by ependymoma connect with the foundation, CERN Members and, perhaps most importantly, each other.
