Acoustic Neuromas: What You Should Know

2009-08-12 16:12:17

Acoustic neuromas, also known as vestibular schwannomas, constitute approximately six percent (6%) of all brain tumors. These tumors occur in all races of people and have a very slight predilection for women over men. In the United States, approximately ten (10) people per million, per year are diagnosed with an acoustic neuroma.

Due to popular demand, well just a demand really (Hi Murat!), I am finally posting. So, our PDK-1 paper in NeuroReport will be available online pretty soon. Exciting! There’s a reason why they call me the PDK-1 Queen around here (jk). Countess Kinase is another you might commonly hear. In all modesty, I sleep, eat, drink, and think PDK-1 and occasionally/leisurely AKT when there’s time. It’s amazing how one can be so absorbed into only a 60 kDa molecule. It’s a beautiful thing.
