Our research
Projects commonly integrate experimental studies and profiling of clinical samples. Studies have been performed across a broad range of tumor types, including breast, prostate, ovarian, colorectal and kidney cancer. A series of ongoing studies take advantage of novel methods for high content tissue profiling, which are used both for tumor biology discovery and identification of drug targets and biomarkers.
The group actively encourage studies that take advantage of the complementary expertise of biologists, pathologists and oncologists. The group also has a longstanding track-record of studies performed in collaborations with pharma companies and biotech start-up companies.
