Episode 1: Jessica Morris.
Jessica Morris is a strategic communications consultant and founder of OurBrainbank, a ground-breaking movement designed by, with and for people with glioblastoma (GBM), after being diagnosed with the disease herself in January 2016.
She is a vocal patient advocate for exploring new options to treat GBM and has recently taken part in a phase 1 trial using the herpes simplex virus to treat recurrence of her disease.
In this episode we discuss virotherapy, clinical trials, and how the Ourbrainbank initiative can benefit patients.
