DIPG research study funded

Congratulations to pediatric neuro-oncologist, Dr. Kellie Nazemi, whose study "Functional Discovery of Therapeutic Targets in Diffuse Intrinstic Pontine Glioma (DIPG)" has received pilot funding from the Friends of Doernbecher grant program.  
  
This study is an important one in defining therapeutic options for children with this devastating disease.
