What is it about?
The call for fundamental research with clinical translation in the field of research on the mechanisms of pediatric cancers is launched by the Funds Simon Bauvin, Robert Brancart, Christian Lispet, Rosa Meynen and Denise Raes.
The introduced research project must aim to improve the understanding of pediatric tumor biology, including (but not limited to) studies on genetic change, signaling pathways, the tumor microenvironment. The project should include clear perspectives for applications in medicine.
