Research summary
AI-generated

Jignesh Tailor works in pediatric neurosurgery and brain cancer research, combining clinical studies with laboratory work. Clinically, the research covers childhood brain tumors, hydrocephalus (fluid buildup in the brain), and epilepsy treatments such as vagus nerve stimulation and laser therapy. In the lab, the work uses human stem cell models to study how brain cells develop and how genetic mutations (such as NF2) drive brain tumors.

Funding
Public award records

Current awards run through January 2030 — about 3 years of funding on record from today. Awards are often renewed, so this is what is currently public, not a forecast.

Collaborators per year
Distinct co-authors at Indiana University each year — a rough indication of whether the group around this researcher has been growing or contracting. An estimate from co-authorship, not a roster: collaborators are not necessarily lab members, and recent years can be under-counted while indexing catches up.
