All of the money will go to DIPG research conducted by Dr Matt Dun, associate professor at the University of Newcastle. But it's not just money Jemima will donate - Jemima's brain and stem line will also be sent to Dr Dun. He hopes it will lead not only to the establishment of a treatment but also give children diagnosed with DIPG a chance of survival. From his conversations with Jemima, Dr Dun says it was easy to tell what an amazing person she is.
