Welcome to our website. Here we would like to introduce you to the research that is currently ongoing in our lab. The ultimate aims of our research are to:
1) Improve the effectiveness of cervical cancer screening programs
2) Enable tailored/personalized treatment of HPV-induced premalignant anogenital disease
3) Improve early detection for non-cervical anogenital cancers
To achieve these goals we have established a highly interdisciplinary research team consisting of clinicians, molecular biologists and biostatisticians. In our projects we apply state-of-the-art methodologies and analyses to identify relevant molecular changes, which are subsequently translated into clinical applications.
