The von Roemeling and Flores Labs are part of the Adam Michael Rosen Neuro-Oncology Laboratories within the University of Florida Brain Tumor Immunotherapy Program, a comprehensive program dedicated to improving outcomes for children with devastating brain tumors.

Brain tumors are the leading cause of cancer-related death in children, underscoring the urgent need for safer and more effective treatments.

Our program spans the full spectrum of care - from laboratory discovery and translational research to first-in-human pediatric clinical trials - working to bring promising scientific advances directly to the patients who need them most.

In the von Roemeling and Flores Labs, we are working not only to develop new therapies for pediatric brain tumors, but also to overcome the barriers that can prevent these treatments from reaching their full potential. We are developing innovative approaches to improve delivery of therapies to tumors within the brain while sparing healthy tissues, as well as new imaging strategies that give clinicians better tools to determine whether treatments are reaching their intended targets and working effectively.

Join our team and go the extra mile for kids with cancer! Whether you walk, run, bike, or participate in your own way, every mile adds to our collective impact. Together, we can raise awareness, support lifesaving pediatric cancer research, and help move us closer to better treatments and brighter futures for children with brain tumors.
