Genomic Landscape of Mixed Glial Neuronal Tumors

Mixed Neuronal-Glial Tumors (MNGT) are a benign category of tumors found in children and young adults.They are associated with seizures and study into their genetics is an active field of research. Understanding the genetics of MNGT is vital to treatment and could help predict tumor and seizure recurrence in patients who have undergone surgery. Using the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas, researchers will analyze currently available genetic data on MNGT in hopes of guiding the development of treatments and predictive assessments.
