The Senate formally designated July 16, 2025, as Glioblastoma Awareness Day to raise public awareness of the most common and aggressive malignant brain tumor, which carries a median survival of only eight months and a five-year survival rate of 6.9 percent. The resolution — agreed to by the Senate — honors those living with or lost to glioblastoma, supports collaborative research, and recognizes the Glioblastoma Therapeutics Network established by the National Cancer Institute in 2020. It is a symbolic designation and does not appropriate funds.
