Translational Research

Our institute conducts research with the goal of establishing innovative diagnostic approaches. For this purpose, we develop new diagnostic tools that bridge the gap between basic science, clinical research, routine diagnostics, and patient care. The focus is on applications that enable the translation of research into clinical practice (“to-bedside”) as well as the integration of clinical observations back into basic research (“bedside-to-bench”). In this way, we serve as a central link between basic research and patient-oriented research.
