Welcome to our Nerve Centre
Here you can stay up to date with the latest news and views from Nerve Tumours UK and across the nerve tumours community.
NF is the new medical name for a set of genetic conditions that cause tumours to grow on nerve endings: Neurofibromatosis Type 1, NF2-related-Schwannomatosis, and Schwannomatosis. We at Nerve Tumours UK are in the process of updating our medical publications and resources in print and digital to reflect the new names where relevant. This will however not be reflected in our news section and other non-medical publications digital and print.
