Pediatric neuro-oncologist

Dr. Sabine Mueller is a pediatric neuro-oncologist who specializes in caring for children with brain tumors and related genetic syndromes. Before completing medical school, she worked as a scientist, director of genomics and project leader for a brain tumor program at AGY Therapeutics, a biotechnology company in South San Francisco.

In her research, Mueller studies treatments for children with brain tumors, looking especially at improving long-term cognitive outcomes.

Mueller earned her medical degree at the Universität Hamburg Faculty of Medicine and earned a doctorate in biochemistry and molecular biology in collaboration with AGY. After a residency in pediatrics at Massachusetts General Hospital, she completed a fellowship in pediatric oncology at UCSF.
