Cuts in NIH research grants will have a lasting negative impact on science and medicine in the U.S. Grants will continue to fund specific research costs, but essential infrastructure like labs, advanced equipment and support staff are crucial for groundbreaking work.

However, a major issue in clinical pediatric cancer care worldwide is access to basic life-saving treatments that are routine in first world countries. Recognizing this, St. Jude Global Health has partnered to improve access to these medicines in low and middle-income countries.

I am truly honored to be able to work at St. Jude. My lab studies particularly lethal pediatric tumors - what makes them so aggressive? Can we disrupt them? In doing so, we aim to build new treatments for these hard to treat diseases. For example:

Targeted degradation of EP300 with a novel PROTAC agent in neuroblastoma cells was found to cause widespread loss of gene expression and cell death in vitro and in vivo.
