She is Associate Professor at Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. The support and infrastructure of these institutions and their dedication to children creates an environment where innovative research and therapies can be brought forward to children.
As the chair and lead investigator of Beat Childhood Cancer (formerly NMTRC) and through preclinical work done within her laboratory, Dr Sholler successfully opens new Phase I and II trials for neuroblastoma and medulloblastoma patients, as well as Molecular Guided Therapy trials using precision medicine based on genomic analysis of pediatric tumors. Beat Childhood Cancer is a collaborative team of over 40 distinguished universities and children’s hospitals that have joined together to offer a national network of clinical trials. Dr Sholler is committed to developing novel therapies and to working closely with collaborating investigators to share and perform innovative laboratory research and to continue to open clinical trials across the nation. Their strong track record of working closely with esteemed investigators studying neuroblastoma in this collaborative environment provides the constant availability of innovative perspectives that drives her research forward and ultimately makes a difference in the daily lives of children living with cancer.[/x_tab][x_tab active=”true”]
