Strickland Brain Tumor Immunology Lab
Thank You for Supporting Our Mission
Every breakthrough in brain tumor research starts with the generosity of people like you. Your time, resources, and trust have enabled discoveries that are transforming patient outcomes and advancing the fight against aggressive brain tumors.
With Gratitude
Our research is made possible through the extraordinary contributions of individuals and organizations who share our commitment to defeating brain tumors.
Your Time
To every collaborator, volunteer, trainee, and student who has dedicated countless hours to our mission — your commitment drives every breakthrough we achieve.
Your Generosity
To the donors, foundations, and funding agencies whose financial support makes our research possible — your investment fuels the pursuit of life-saving therapies.
Your Samples
To the patients and institutions who have entrusted us with tissue samples — your contributions are the foundation upon which we build our understanding of brain tumors.
What Your Support Has Enabled
From the lab bench to the bedside, here is how your contributions are shaping the future of brain tumor treatment.
Mapping the Tumor Microenvironment
Through single-cell analysis and spatial transcriptomics, we have identified how glioblastoma manipulates immune cells to evade detection — revealing new targets for intervention.
Pioneering Meningioma Immunotherapy
Our investigation of differential epigenetic expression patterns in meningioma is translating molecular insights into precise immunotherapies for patients with aggressive, recurrent tumors.
Focused Ultrasound Drug Delivery
We are engineering noninvasive focused ultrasound approaches that open the blood-brain barrier to enhance drug delivery and activate anti-tumor immune responses in glioblastoma.
Advancing CAR-T Cell Therapy
Our work on chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy is addressing antigen heterogeneity and immunosuppressive barriers to improve CAR-T persistence in the central nervous system.
