German Cancer Research Center: Scientific Analysis of Cancer Diseases

The German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ), as Germany's largest biomedical research institution, is dedicated entirely to cancer research.

More than 1,000 scientists work at the center in over 90 departments and research groups, investigating how cancer develops, identifying cancer risk factors, and seeking strategies to prevent cancer. They develop new approaches that enable more precise tumor diagnosis and more successful treatment of cancer patients.
