π Success Story | Precision Oncology at UZ Gent
At UZ Gent, collaboration and standardization are key drivers of innovation in cancer research. UZ Gent has established a prospective, uniform biobank collection to support translational oncology research.
π Liquid biopsies are systematically collected from oncology patients across multiple departments.
π₯ Four clinical departments are involved, working with standardized patient inclusion procedures.
π§ͺ All samples are centrally processed and stored within the UZ Gent Central Biobank, ensuring high quality and consistency.
π Each sample is linked to well-curated clinical and follow-up data, increasing its research value.
π The cohort continues to grow and includes longitudinal sampling, enabling follow-up over time.
Together, this initiative is building a strong research infrastructure and strengthening national and international collaborations in precision oncology.
