Experimental bioadhesive patch sticks to wet brain tissue and wipes out most glioblastoma cells

Glioblastoma is the most prevalent and aggressive brain tumor. It proliferates very rapidly, is highly invasive, and there is currently no treatment capable of halting its progression or curing it, which means life expectancy after diagnosis is very short.
