David E. Kram, MD, MCR

My primary area of clinical interest is pediatric neuro-oncology, but I take care of children with all cancers and blood disorders. I am a translational researcher and clinical trialist. My primary research interests are in better elucidating the complex mechanisms of oncogenesis, invasion, and immune escape in low and high-grade pediatric brain tumors, which together are now the leading cause of cancer-related death in children. My ultimate goal is to help develop new therapeutic strategies for pediatric brain tumors that are more effective and less toxic.
