High-Risk Medulloblastoma
“What drives me is the urgency of high-risk medulloblastoma. For many children and families, relapse means there are very few effective options left. I want to help develop therapies that are not only more effective, but also smarter, more precise and ultimately less harmful for children.”
Maya’s Legacy
After Maya bravely battled a rare pediatric brain tumor, her family transformed profound loss into purpose. Today, the Maya Dronca Foundation funds innovative pediatric cancer research in her honor, working toward a future where no child faces cancer without hope.
