Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher studies brain tumors, particularly gliomas, with a focus on how the immune system and tumor biology interact to influence disease progression and treatment response. Recent work includes single-cell analysis of immune cells in glioma patients, imaging methods for pediatric brain tumors, and molecular pathways (like iron regulation and macrophage migration inhibitory factor) that drive tumor growth. This work is preclinical and translational, often using mouse models alongside patient sample analysis.
