Dr. David Gutmann is the Donald O. Schnuck Family Professor of Neurology and Director of the Neurofibromatosis Center at Washington University School of Medicine. Dr. Gutmann’s expertise lies in the study of neurofibromatosis, or NF, a genetic disorder which causes tumor growth in the nervous system throughout the body. His work has received international recognition, resulting in him being honored with the 2012 Children’s Tumor Foundation Frederich von Recklinghausen award and Election as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. He was also awarded an Alexander von Humboldt Award and an Einstein Fellowship from the Berlin Institute of Health to allow for the creation of an international research team. He is also recognized for pioneering preclinical models of brain tumors in mice. Dr. Gutmann is truly a world-class scientist and clinician and I was very happy to talk to him, so I hope you enjoy this episode.
