Abstract

Title: Natural History and Biology of Dermal Neurofibromas in Patients with Neurofibromatosis 1Principal Investigator: Amy Theos, M.D.Department: DermatologyFunding Period: 8/07 - 7/09Brief Description: This project proposes to develop objective tools for following progression of cutaneousneurofibroma. This information will be important for understanding the natural history of skin tumors in NF1,and ultimately will be used in clinical trials, aimed at treating this manifestation of NF1.Extramural Funding: Dermatology Foundation Patient Directed Investigation Grant; Currently preparing foran NIH K23 applicationPublications: Too early to assess
