Cancer Predisposition Research
Ongoing Research
Researchers at the Center for Childhood Cancer Research are studying the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms that contribute to the increased risk of children with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) to develop cancer.
Researchers at the Center for Childhood Cancer Research are working to generate a series of position papers intended to detail the recommended best practices for pediatric cancer surveillance.
Researchers are studying the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms that contribute to the epigenetic mosaicism characteristic of patients with human imprinting disorders including Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) and Russell-Silver syndrome (RSS).
