Drs. Yuan Pan (Assistant Professor, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center) and Nicole Brossier (Assistant Professor, Washington University) were recently awarded a three-year grant from the Department of Defense NF Research Program to study the interaction between Nf1 mutation and maternal diet. Together, Drs. Pan and Brossier will study how genetic and environmental factors both individually and in combination, affect brain development relative to learning and cognition. This research will provide the foundation for future investigations into risk-adapted therapies for improving cognition in people living with NF1.
