UWM's App Brewery is a mobile innovation laboratory in which students design, develop, support and host mobile apps for the Milwaukee research community. They collaborated with UW-Milwaukee’s App Brewery to create the app. It is the brainchild of two experts with the Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin Cancer Network: Joseph Bovi, MD, Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW) associate professor and Christopher Schultz, MD, FACR, FASTRO, MCW professor and chair of the Department of Radiation Oncology. NIMBLE stands for Network for the Integrated Management of Brain Metastasis Linking Experts. Now, treatment demands neurosurgeons, neuro-oncologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, pathologists, cognitive specialists and many others who work together in a meeting called a tumor board to plan the most effective treatment. Historically, people with such brain tumors did not have an extended survival prognosis due to limited treatment options. Almost any type of cancer can spread (metastasize) to the brain. MILWAUKEE (January 22, 2020) - Designed and built in Milwaukee, the NIMBLE app is changing how doctors treat individuals who have cancer that has spread to the brain. New app provides real-time recommendations on treatment for complex and challenging cancers that spread to the brain
