Registration Now Open for Our National Caregivers Self-Care Webinar Hosted by the End Brain Cancer Initiative

Registration is now open for the National Caregivers Self-Care online educational event hosted by the End Brain Cancer Initiative (EBCI). This event is designed for caregivers to hear from others who truly understand the experiences and challenges of being a caregiver and get answers to the questions they’ve been too afraid to ask. The webinar will be held on Friday, August 1st, 2025, from 11 AM to 1 PM Pacific Time.

Keynote Speaker Dr. Courtney Burnett is an internal medicine physician living and working in Saint Paul, Minnesota, and author of the award-winning memoir “Difficult Gifts: A Physician’s Journey to Heal Body and Mind.” At age 29, while studying medicine in Thailand, Courtney self-diagnosed her brain tumor, which turned out to be an incurable and rare form of brain cancer. This radically shifted her perspective on what it means to be a patient, a compassionate physician, and a mortal human being. Regardless of the unexpected situations life brings, she believes the power of hope, mindfulness, and vulnerable storytelling can help us all find gifts amidst difficulty.

The event is free to attend, but registration is required. The first ten people to register for the event will receive a free signed copy of Dr. Courtney Burnett’s book, “Difficult Gifts: A Physician’s Journey to Heal Body and Mind.” Registration is open now at https://endbraincancer.org/caregiver-event-august-2025/.

Thank you to presenting sponsor Novocure for making this free patient and caregiver disease educational event possible.
