Neural-immune Interactions in Cognitive Impairment Following Cancer Therapy or COVID
Michelle Monje is a leading neuroscientist and neuro-oncologist who is advancing our understanding of postnatal brain development and translating her findings into promising therapies for pediatric brain tumors. She has made seminal contributions to elucidating the phenomena of " chemobrain, " a debilitating side effect of chemotherapy which include symptoms such as memory lapses, slowed thinking, and mental fog. Her COVID-themed seminar will be focused on her recent studies into the similarities between the chemobrain phenomena and the short- and long-term neurological effects of COVID.

The Peter Pan Syndrome: Oncohistones Stall Development in Pediatric Cancers
CCR Grand Rounds
Dr. Jabado ’ s research focuses on elucidating genetic signatures of pediatric astrocytomas and examining how they compare to adults. These are deadly brain tumors that originate in the brain and include glioblastomas (GBM, the highest grade of astrocytomas), which are one of the deadliest cancers in humans. Her group uncovered that pediatric high-grade astrocytomas (HGA) are molecularly and genetically distinct from adult tumors. They also identified a new molecular mechanism driving pediatric HGA, namely recurrent somatic driver mutations in the tail of histone 3 variants (H3.3 and H3.1). These mutatio...

Mass spectrometry imaging applications to support clinical decision making
Proteomics Interest Group
Mass spectrometry provides multiple options for the direct characterization of tissue to support surgical decision-making, and provides significant insight in the development of drugs targeting tumors of the central nervous system (CNS). Using an array of mass spectrometry (MS) applications, we rapidly analyze specific tumor markers ranging from small metabolites to proteins from surgical tissue for rapid diagnosis and surgical guidance. Using similar clinical protocols, we visualize drug and metabolites penetration in brain tumor tissue and correlate with tumor heterogeneity and response to suppo...

T Cell-Based Immunotherapy Approaches for Gliomas
NCI's Center for Cancer Research (CCR) Grand Rounds
As a physician – scientist, Dr. Okada has been dedicated to brain tumor immunology and development of effective immunotherapy for brain tumor patients for over 20 years. His team was one of very first to discover cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes in glioma-associated and glioma-specific antigens. Dr. Okada also found critical roles for the integrin receptor very late activation antigen (VLA)-4 and the chemokine CXCL10 in facilitating entry of CTLs to the brain tumor site. Dr. Okada has translated these discoveries into a number of innovative immunotherapy clinical s...
