Introduction

Glioma MR Imaging 2.0 (GliMR) is funded by the COST Association with COST identifier CA18206, to set-up a network reaching out to researchers as well as other relevant stakeholders (such as radiologists, oncologists, caregivers, patient organisation, patients, SME’s and policy makers) involved with research or application of advanced MRI for glioma.

The funding is mainly aiming at creating bridges between these stakeholders and establishing new collaborations, in order to reach the goals set out by the working groups. This translates in the organisation of funded working group and management committee meetings, workshop, summer/training schools, short term scientific missions, inclusiveness target countries grants, and much more. Additionally, several dissemination tools and platforms are funding, resulting in the development of a website, social media accounts, video’s, and publications.

Therefore, it is important to reinforce the presence of the COST brand throughout the Actions’ different communication tools, such as: brochures, flyers, posters, websites, videos, articles in scientific journals, books, etc.
