Overview
overview
I am currently a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Pediatric Oncology at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in the laboratory of Dr. Mariella Filbin. I am committed to an academic career tackling the challenge of tumor recurrence in pediatric diffuse midline gliomas. My primary interest is to investigate how conventional treatments alter the developmental hierarchy within these tumors, with the ultimate aim of identifying pathways or cellular interactions that can be exploited to improve treatment outcomes. I have a strong background in translational cancer research, and have a PhD in neuroscience.

PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media. (Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.) Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication. Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication. Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.) Click a Field or Translation tag to filter the publications.
