Childhood cancers arise during development. When a particular genetic mutation occurs at a specific stage of development, the normal growth control mechanisms are bypassed. We build on our expertise in developmental biology to elucidate the cellular etiology of childhood solid tumors to discover answers to fundamental questions around the origins of cancer.
We share all of our discoveries, expertise and resources with scientists around the world to advance cures for childhood solid tumors.
Deciphering the pathogenesis and therapeutic vulnerabilities of pediatric high-grade glioma
Investigating the deregulation of developmental pathways in pediatric solid tumors
Interrogating the biology of pediatric brain tumors and developing preclinical models for therapeutic development
Leveraging multi-omic bulk and single-cell approaches to decipher molecular landscapes and developmental origins of medulloblastoma
Leveraging multi-omics approaches to understand genetic risk and developmental origins driving disease pathogenesis.
