p in the tumors growth process.

These approaches are targeted therapies--aimed in highly selective ways at cancer cells, but sparing healthy cells, said Maris. But in order to best guide us to the most appropriate treatments, we need greater understanding of the abnormal biological events that give rise to neuroblastoma.

One crucial technique for identifying biological pathways is through studies of the gene mutations and variations involved in different types of neuroblastoma, and Mariss team is calling on the sophisticated gene-hunting facilities at the new Center for Applied Genomics at Children's Hospital to advance that knowledge.

Our goal is to match the most appropriate treatment with precise molecular targets in biological pathways, so we can intervene to stop neuroblastoma in its tracks, said Maris.
