Genomic Landscape of Mixed Glial Neuronal Tumors
Mixed Neuronal-Glial Tumors (MNGT) are a benign category of tumor associated with seizures. Using the Pediatric Brain Tumor Atlas, researchers will analyze MNGT in hopes of guiding the development of treatments and predictive assessments.

Exploring the Possible Role of Mutations in MTOR pathway Genes in the Pathogenesis of DNET tumors
Dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumors (DNET) genetic origins are little understood. Using samples from CBTN BioBank, researchers are conducting studies to help answer questions about their development to identify novel drug therapies.

Ganglioglioma
Ganglioglioma presents during childhood and into adulthood. It most commonly arises in the cerebral cortex and is associated with seizures, but also presents in other sites, including the spinal cord.[65,74]The unifying theme for the molecular pathogenesis of ganglioglioma is genomic alterations lea
Dysembryoplastic Neuroepithelial Tumor
Septal DNET generally presents with symptoms related to obstructive hydrocephalus.[69,70] Septal DNET has an indolent clinical behavior, with most tumors not requiring treatment other than surgery. In a single-institution series that incorporated other literature-reported cases, the median age at pr
