and 11 more
May 07, 2020
A diverse panel of pediatric cancer advocates and experts, whose collective experience spans the continuum of international academic medicine, industry, federal research, and cancer advocacy, recently discussed challenges for pediatric cancer research in the context of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Specifically, this special report addresses the following focus areas: (1) the critical role that translational research has played in transforming pediatric cancer outcomes; (2) the current and potential future impact of COVID-19 on pediatric cancer research; (3) target areas of COVID-19 research that may have application in immunity, oncogenesis and therapeutic discovery; and (4) future considerations and directions in maintaining pediatric cancer research during and after COVID-19.
