Research

In the new strategy ‘UMC Utrecht 3.0’ research is concentrated in six programs with each a limited number of disease targets. Patient care is integrated in these programs.

A relentless multidisciplinary approach guarantees patients benefit from the latest available expertise and innovative technological solutions. Interaction with patients and society creates an ‘innovation loop’ where societal issues guide scientific research and where scientific results quickly move from bench to bedside.
