About
We focus on the genetic predispositions and mutational processes that underly cancer development, especially in the context of cancer development at an early age in Iife and concerning the development of multiple primary tumors throughout the life of a single individual.

Aims
-
Identification of novel genetic variants that predispose to cancer by state-of-the-art omics analyses of hereditary cancer-suspected individuals.
-
Understanding the mechanisms that underly cancer development by genomic analyses and model systems.
-
Translating findings from research to clinical practise to improve the care for individuals with cancer.
