Congrats to the team for our work - on the cover of Science Translational Medicine! One more step forward to find effective treatments for #DIPG. Thanks to all our funders - See details here:
New in @ScienceTM 🧬 On the cover! Our work on diffuse midline glioma (#DMG #DIPG), an incurable paediatric brain cancer driven by epigenetic changes. We asked: Can targeting chromatin slow tumour growth?🔗science.org/doi/10.1126/scit… #ScienceTranslationalMedicineResearch

Together, these results support dual FACT + BET inhibition as a promising DMG therapy, hitting both tumour-intrinsic vulnerabilities and immune defenses. @KidsCancerInst @UNSW Huge thanks to @aaminahkhan_1, @ProfDavidZieg, @maria_tsoli & all collaborators!

For years, parents have asked how we can effectively deliver anticancer drugs to Diffuse Midline Gliomas. Thanks to the DIPG/DMG Collaborative’s support, we are making progress by focusing on opening the blood-brain-barrier to improve drug delivery. Grateful and excited for this funding that brings us closer to answers and hope. @ProfDavidZieg Caitlin Ung youtu.be/H3laWO8TghE?si=yU9z… via @YouTube
