Mentor Areas

The Hogarty lab studies the childhood tumor neuroblastoma. We use cell-based and animal models of this disease, along with patient samples to better understand it. We focus on how these tumor cells develop survival dependencies that keep them alive under stress, and what vulnerabilities they have that can be used to develop new therapies.
