The Steinbeis University focuses on translational research, i.e. the exchange between basic research and clinical research. The focus of my research activities is the application-oriented development of molecular genetics-based oncology in broad-based care as well as the development of new biomarkers. In addition to molecular genetics, protein expression and immunological properties of tumors play a major role in this context. Furthermore, the challenge is to link basic medical research as well as clinical research with informatics. Within the framework, a top-class research group consisting of members of the Technical University of Munich, the Fraunhofer Institute IOSB Karslruhe, the Technical University of Rosenheim and the Cancer Center Dachau was established together with the Steinbeish University Berlin. Furthermore, the Institute for Translational Molecular Tumor Research (ITT) was founded between the TU Munich and the Steinbeis Transfer Institute for Clinical Hematooncology as a common basis for research collaboration in this field.
