About
The Center for Neural Tumor Research at House Ear Institute has a mission of understanding the cellular and molecular basis of neurofibromatosis type 2-related tumorigenesis as well as developing translational tools relevant for the treatment of the disease.
To accomplish this programmatic vision, we develop several research projects in a close partnership with the Division of Cell Biology and Genetics, the Center for Clinical Studies, the House Clinic, and with a network of collaborators worldwide that are pivotal for accomplishing and widening the mission of the CNTR.
The scientific staff of the CNTR is an international team of young, enterprising researchers that have been brought to this program by their unique interest in cancer research.
