Medulloblastoma Collaborative
Medulloblastoma Collaborative
The Medulloblastoma Collaborative formed due to connections made at the CHRI Pediatric Cancer Research Symposium.
Vision:
To improve the life of children with high-risk medulloblastomas
Mission:
To capitalize on complementary biomedical expertise within CHRI and the greater University of Nebraska campuses to collaboratively advance our understanding of high-risk medulloblastoma pathophysiology and therapeutics
Goals:
- To allow for free exchange of ideas that may result in better quality research
- To provide a panel of MB experts who may provide peer review for future projects, manuscripts and grants
- To eventually procure multi-PI national funding
