Laboratory of Integrative Cancer Genomics (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The Lab for Integrative cancer Genomics develops computational approaches to comprehensively chart genomic and epigenetic variation using sequencing data and elucidate their contributions to somatic evolution, tumour heterogeneity, and treatment resistance.
Laboratory of Dermatology KU Leuven
The research of the Laboratory of Dermatology is situated in the domain of cutaneous oncology (melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer) and encompasses an epidemiological and a clinical-fundamental aspect. The latter aspect focuses on research in photoprotection and non-melanoma skin cancer (cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma).
Research topics include:
- Photoprotective and therapeutic effects of flavonoids on ...
Laboratory of Translational Genetics (VIB-KUÂ Leuven) KU Leuven
The overall aim of the research of the Laboratory of Translational Genetics, is to unravel the genetic predisposition to cancer and to annotate somatic changes in solid tumors with the ultimate aim to discover and functionally validate genetic biomarkers for cancer therapies.
Molecular Imaging, Pathology, Radiotherapy & Oncology (MIPRO) University of Antwerp
Clinical Digestive Oncology KU Leuven
The research group Clinical Digestive Oncology focuses on:
- Clinical research on new treatment modalities with a focus on strategy of treatment sequences and on new drugs, including also radionucleide treatment. The clinical research is also focused towards the multidisciplinary management and multimodal treatment of gastrointestinal tumors.
- Clinical research on optimization of diagnostic modalities including response ...
Laboratory for Genetics of Malignant Disorders KU Leuven
The discovery and functional characterization of new, recurrent cytogenetic or molecular aberrations in malignant disorders are the most important research objectives of the laboratory for Genetics of Malignant Disorders. These research objectives connect almost seamlessly with the diagnostic, cytogenetic and molecular services which CME-UZ offers for nearly each malignant pathology: acute and chronic leukaemia, lymphomas, mesenchymal and ...
Gynaecological Oncology KU Leuven
The research in the Gynaecological Oncology laboratory covers 4 major fields:
Cancer and pregnancy. Our focus is on the continued long term follow up of children who were prenatally exposed to chemotherapy. In this framework, we are performing in vitrotransplacental studies. We also have a special interest in breast cancer during pregnancy. Research in both fields is performed in an international and interdisciplinary setting. ...
Laboratory of Experimental Radiotherapy KU Leuven
The Laboratory of Experimental Radiotherapy conducts studies on a wide aray of subjects such as:
- The modulation of molecular pathways that determine radiation response and their relationship to treatment outcome
- Clinical trials in which the combination of molecular targeted agents with ionizing radiation is being explored
- The identification of novel biomarkers, both molecular and non-invasive imaging ...
