We are currently looking for Master’s students in the fields of Bioinformatics and Genomic Data Science for the topic of
Liquid biopsy-based cancer monitoring Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) is released by cells into the bloodstream or other bodily fluids. This cfDNA can easily be sampled through non-invasive methods called liquid biopsy. Like regular tissue biopsies, liquid biopsies also provide detailed genomic and epigenomic information about the tumor. Our research group focuses on identifying actionable biomarkers in cancer, that can be traced via blood tests and thus enable precision medicine.
