Non Potluck Post 2 Carly Johnson


Non Potluck Post 2 Carly Johnson


Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive tumors to the central nervous system, giving the afflicted patients on average only about 5 year survival rate and only 5% recovery prognosis. This paper highlights a  new view into the treatment of gliblastoma tumors, by using cultured neural stem cells in the mammalian CNS. This study hopes for the invention of novel therapeutic targets and pathways for GBM based on the development of single cell-transcription and epigenmone analysis by way of epigenmonic change delineation associated with GMB tumors.
