Hartwig Medical Foundation

Improved cancer patient care driven by data

We are contributing to this work by:

Developing

innovative molecular tests, for identifying the characteristics of the tumor.

Collecting and storing

knowledge of and information about the patient and their tumor.

Integrating

the information and knowledge with treatment outcome to accelerate scientific research. This enables us to learn from the data of today’s patients and provide better treatment for the patients of tomorrow.
