Brain tumor research at NYU
We study the origins of glioma and develop cutting-edge tools to improve brain tumor outcomes.

All newsThe origins of glioma
We are interested in elaborating the stochastic processes which underpin glioma formation, a new way at approaching tumor biology.

Stimulated Raman histology
Using AI-based field diagnostics, we developed a tool to computationally stain glioma specimens for rapid diagnosis and real-time surgical decision making.
Imaging researchTechnologies to improve neurosurgical decision making
Deciding how much tumor to remove while preserving brain function is one of the most complex judgments in neurosurgical oncology. We are developing tools to guide that decision during surgery, including a 15-minute test that measures tumor DNA at the resection margin.
