Raising funds for pediatric brain cancer research, one stein at a time!













We encourage you to join us in signing this @Change petition launched by @Rene_MarshCNN in her recent @CNN editorial, calling on increased support for kids with brain & other cancers, as well as the passing of the bipartisan Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act 2.0. #BTAM

Between 250 - 500 kids are diagnosed with this most common cancerous brain tumor. When removed, tumor is examined to determine group risk level. Survival is 60%-70% however, a subset of patients with Group 3 MYC-amplified medulloblastoma have a survival rate of less than 25%.





Earlier today, I introduced the Gabriella Miller Kids First Research Act 2.0 to provide greater funding for childhood cancer & rare disease research. I took some time to talk to Gabriella’s mom, Ellyn, about their family’s story. It was a privilege to work with her on this bill.
