Our goal is to provide a better understanding of the molecular machinery that drives proliferation, invasiveness, and therapy resistance of brain tumor cells.

🥳We congratulate 🎉 #ABTAresearcher Dr JunqueiraAlves for receiving the 2024 American Brain Tumor Association Discovery Grant to find new ways to block the invasive spread of #glioblastoma Best of luck for these exciting studies! abta.org/research/resea… Friedman Brain Institute Mount Sinai Neurosurgery The Tisch Cancer Institute


Exciting new data from Chrystian Junqueira Alves and Daniel Halperin at #CSHL2024BRAIN on mechanoregulation and #Plexin in neurogenesis from Friedman Brain Institute


Congratulations Chrystian Junqueira Alves and Daniel for being part of the 2025 FBI Research Scholar Award! Gol do Brasil 😀🎉 This will be a trailblazing project into finding new ways towards neuronal differentiation!


Congrats Chrystian Junqueira Alves for this pioneering study on how membrane tension facilitates invasion of #brain cancer cells through constricted space. Parabens! 😉nature.com/articles/s4146… Friedman Brain Institute Mount Sinai Neurosurgery The Tisch Cancer Institute





1/ Delighted to share the published version of this work from brilliant #CancerNeuroscience post-doc Tara Barron detailing GABAergic neuron-to-glioma synapses in #DIPG/#DMG. 🧵 Open access link: nature.com/articles/s4158…



Congrats 🎉 to our MDPhD student Dr. Samuel Allen PhD Friedman Brain Institute for his successful defense today! Many thanks to committee members Flavio Frohlich PhD Friedel Lab Rudebeck Lab & Dr. Foss-Feig for their support 🙏



Congrats Sita for your Master thesis defense today in the #Zoulab ! Exciting studies on the role of #plexin in #glioblastoma invasion Well done !!!🙌😀 Friedel Lab Friedman Brain Institute Mount Sinai Neurosurgery Grad School at Icahn Mount Sinai


Published in Nature Cancer (May 2025), Kang et al. uncover a novel microglia-driven mechanism governing GBM transition from bulk tumor growth to invasive spread. They reveal that microglia, guided by the protein plexin-B2, undergo a remarkable transformation—initially forming


Congratulations @sangjokang.bsky.social and #zoulab for this pioneering study on how microglia shape invasion of brain cancer cells through cell collision mechanism with Plexin-B2. 축하해요 ! 🥳 nature.com/articles/s4301… Friedman Brain Institute Mount Sinai Neurosurgery The Tisch Cancer Institute
