Laboratory of David Sandberg, M.D.

MRI image of catheter in 4th ventricleThe pediatric brain tumor research program led byDavid I. Sandberg博士着重于儿童恶性小儿脑肿瘤的新型治疗选择。Sandberg博士开发了将化学疗法直接输注到小猪和非人类灵长类动物中大脑第四个心室的转化模型。这些研究导致了临床试验,其中首次将化学疗法和新型药物直接注入大脑的第四个心室。符合条件的患者包括髓母细胞瘤的儿童,儿童最常见的恶性脑肿瘤以及后窝中发生的其他恶性脑肿瘤。

David I Sandberg, M.D. is Associate Professor and Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston. He also serves as Co-Director of the combined pediatric brain tumor program between MD Anderson Cancer Center and Children’s Memorial Hermann Hospital. Dr. Sandberg received his undergraduate degree from Harvard University, his medical degree from the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, and completed neurosurgery residency training at Weill Medical College of Cornell University/New York Presbyterian Hospital. After residency, he completed fellowship training in pediatric neurosurgery at the Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, which is affiliated with the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California.

Dr. Sandberg’s major research interests focus on novel means of delivering therapeutic agents into the brain for the treatment of childhood brain tumors.
