Modelling and Targeting Pancreatic Cancer

Pancreatic cancer belongs to those forms of cancer that are very aggressive and difficult to treat. Our collaborative research center is studying biological characteristics of this cancer. We believe that only a profound mechanistic understanding of pancreatic cancer and its extreme and unique characteristics will lead to a sustained improvement of the prognosis for affected patients. Based on this clinical orientation we are determined to improve the therapy options for this specific form of cancer.
