Scientists are systematically investigating the genomes of pediatric brain tumors (medulloblastoma and pylocytic astrocytoma). In their first data evaluation, researchers have now discovered genomic changes which not only reveal targets for new treatment approaches but also provide information about how to use already available drugs more specifically.
