About our department
Our research
At the department of Hematology we are dedicated to improving the diagnosis and treatment of patients with hematological diseases. We perform basic and translational research to generate insight into the pathobiology of hematological diseases, and translate these findings into novel treatments for our patients.
In addition, we direct a wide variety of clinical studies, closely linked to our preclinical programs. These clinical studies deal with the development of molecular diagnostics, advancement of allogeneic stem cell transplantation, circumvention of drug-resistance to chemotherapy as well as a broad range of clinical phase I to phase III trials for a variety of hematological diseases.
