We focuse our efforts into understanding the mechanisms by which blood vessels are established.

The research focuses on the tumor microenvironment in combination with molecular genetic characterization, ctDNA and functional imaging diagnostics to improve the outcome of gynecological cancer patients with precision medicine. The research is based on the clinical activities of the research members in close collaboration with preclinical research groups.

Many studies use novel methods for spatial tissue profiling of human tumors. Collaborations with clinical researchers, SciLifeLab experts, companies, and IP collection, are common defining project features. The ultimate goal is to contribute to the use of CAFs as drug targets and biomarkers of clinical utility.
