Biography
"The Clinical Cooperation Unit Neuropathology was founded in 2007. Our research focuses on molecular genetics of pediatric and adult tumors of the central nervous system, the function of neurofibromin, and the molecular reference analysis for brain tumor studies. Prof. A. Korshunov examines pediatric brain tumors in close cooperation with other groups from the DKFZ with a focus on medulloblastomas, pilocytic astrocytomas and ependymomas. We are participating in the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC)." "The Clinical Cooperation Unit Neuropathology was founded in 2007.
