Chris Elliott lost his battle against glioblastoma in 2002, but his legacy<br />
continues through the Chris Elliott Fund for Glioblastoma Brain Cancer<br />
Research.<br />
Chris Elliott Fund for<br />
Glioblastoma Brain Cancer<br />
Research<br />
The Chris Elliott Fund (CEF) for Glioblastoma Brain<br />
Cancer Research is a non-profit organization founded in<br />
2002 by Chris and Dellann Elliott which focuses on raising<br />
awareness through education, advocacy and research.<br />
Today, CEF provides resources, information and support<br />
for people living with brain cancer. Specifically, CEF<br />
funds groundbreaking research in the Christopher S. Elliott<br />
Neuro-oncology Lab for Glioblastoma Brain Research and<br />
Applied Cancer Science <strong>Center</strong> at the Dana-Farber Cancer<br />
Institute in Boston, Mass.<br />
In 2009, the Chris Elliott Fund launched their Integrated<br />
Patient Support Program at the <strong>Swedish</strong> Neuroscience Institute<br />
where they provide a multitude of services and outreach<br />
for the brain cancer patient. In addition, CEF made<br />
a $300,000 pledge to support the Chris Elliott Fund Patient<br />
Support Specialist at The Ben and Catherine Ivy <strong>Center</strong> for<br />
Advanced Brain Tumor Treatment in Seattle’s <strong>Swedish</strong> Neuroscience<br />
Institute. The Patient Support Specialist is dedicated<br />
to easing the stress upon patients and their families following<br />
a brain cancer diagnosis, and Dellann has helped the Specialist<br />
launch patient support groups to help brain tumor patients<br />
understand there is now hope for a cure to this disease and<br />
to talk about the advancements available at the Ivy <strong>Center</strong>.<br />
