Medulloblastoma is the most common pediatric malignant brain tumor composed of four molecular subgroups. Recent intensive genomics has greatly contributed to our understanding of medulloblastoma pathogenesis. Sequencing studies identified novel mutations involved in the cyclic AMP‐dependent pathway or RNA processing in the Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) subgroup, and core‐binding factor subunit alpha (CBFA) complex in the group 4 subgroup. Likewise, single‐cell sequencing provided detailed insights into the cell of origin associated with brain development. In this review, we will summarize recent findings by sequencing analyses for medulloblastoma.
