What this could lead to

If successful, this repository could help researchers discover new biomarkers or immune patterns that may guide future treatments for brain tumors.

What could go wrong

This is an observational study that does not test any treatment, so it will not directly benefit participants. The findings may not lead to immediate clinical applications.
