Targeting Medulloblastoma by Regulating RNA Binding Proteins…

RNA-binding proteins (RBP) may play critical roles in medulloblastoma development studying their roles will provide additional direct and indirect targets for the treatment of these tumors and beyond. Researchers will utilize cell lines provided by the Children’s Brain Tumor Network in an effort to identify new targets in the pediatric forms of these tumors.
