    • GROW Basic and Translational Cancer Biology

      Basic and Translational Cancer Biology

      The mission of the programme Basic and Translational Cancer Biology is to unravel basic (epi)genetic and cellular mechanisms that underlie the induction, progression and recurrence of malignancies by conducting molecular, histological and quantitative image analysis on blood, urine, cells and tissues from patients and developing in vivo mouse models to develop and implement innovative diagnostic and therapeutical procedures to improve tumour control and avoid harmful effects of disease and treatment.

    • GROW Reproduction and Perinatal Medicine

      Reproduction and Perinatal Medicine

      The mission of the programme Reproduction and Perinatal Medicine is to study the normal and abnormal development of the human gametes, embryo and foetus in order to prevent and treat (hereditary) abnormalities at the (pre-)implantation stage. Furthermore, the programme focusses on the development of the foetus and the mother-child relation to ensure a healthy pregnancy and its outcome.
