Translational Oncology

Objectives

– Identification of diagnostic biomarkers that help the early identification of patients
– Identification of biomarkers of resistance to treatment or relapses
– Development of functional models mimetic to the characteristics of the patient
– Development of decision support systems through data analysis

Research Lines

– Liquid biopsy as a diagnostic tool
– Functional models of organoids, murine and 3D bioprinted for the study of resistance and drug screening
– Integration of molecular and image data for the development of decision support systems
– Promote the development and implementation of programs in advanced therapies, particularly, CAR-T cells cell therapy and other models
– Continuous improvement of the inclusion of patients in clinical trials, in coordination with primary care
