Survivorship from pediatric and adult brain tumors: The 2024 Brain Tumor Epidemiology Consortium meeting report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The Brain Tumor Epidemiology Consortium (BTEC) is an international organization with membership of individuals from the scientific community with interests related to brain tumor epidemiology, including surveillance, classification, methodology, etiology, and factors associated with morbidity and survival. The 2024 annual BTEC meeting entitled “Survivorship from Pediatric and Adult Brain Tumors” was held in Mainz, Germany, USA, on May 15–17, 2024. The meeting gathered scientists from Africa, Australia, Europe, and North America and included 4 keynote sessions focusing on brain tumor survivorship across the age spectrum. The meeting included 3 abstract sessions, which also included scientific talks around brain tumor risk factors and predicting risk and survival. We also held a brainstorming session to form a near-term research strategy around brain tumor survivorship in the epidemiology community. This report provides a summary of the meeting content.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
