Our goal is to follow the linear time course of predisposition, initiation, early stages and advanced disease and to dissect the molecular mechanisms triggered at each stage and to follow the multidimentional interactions at various levels in a systems biology approach to be able to better do risk estimation, prognostication and prediction.

To reach these goals we have divided our research into 7 activities:

  1. Gene environment interaction in breast cancer risk
  2. Tumor initiation and early diagnosis
  3. Tumor progression and metastasis
  4. Prediction of treatment response and targeted therapy
  5. Integrated approaches
  6. Functional validation
  7. Biostatistical challenges and approaches
