Tumors of the brain and spine
A major thrust of our clinical and research efforts at NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children's Hospital revolves around children with tumors of the brain and spine. Weekly multidisciplinary conferences including neurosurgery, neurology, oncology, nursing, and social work allow individually tailored treatment plans to insure the best possible outcomes. Active participation in the Children's Oncology Group allows children to participate in treatment protocols offered only at selected centers across the nation. Furthermore, we are actively conducting both basic science laboratory research and clinical trials to offer hope for children with malignant brain tumors.
