Diana Thomas's work centers on pediatric brain tumors, especially gliomas such as diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) and high-grade glioma, combining molecular/genetic characterization of tumors with clinical trials testing new drug and radiation treatments. Much of this research is done through large multi-institution collaborations and childhood cancer data-sharing initiatives aimed at improving diagnosis and treatment for children and young adults.
