Early detection

Early detection of cancer increases the chances of survival. To achieve this, we need efficient and personalized screening of people at risk for the development of cancer, and better techniques to detect cancer at an early stage.

In collaboration with the AVL Center for Early Detection, The Netherlands Cancer Institute offers our researchers the best infrastructure to develop and optimize personalized screening and test novel techniques to detect cancer at an early stage of development. The close collaboration with hospitals in our network allows new developments to be incorporated in daily care.


What we investigate

How does cancer develop in the human body?

Which biomarkers can detect cancer effectively and efficiently at an early stage?

How can we set up a personalized screening for various cancer types?
We aim to translate fundamental knowledge into early detection programs to improve outcomes for cancer patients and eventually prevent cancer development.
