All tumours are different - a lecture by Niko Beerenwinkel

As part of a public event series on “Tomorrow’s medicine” organised by Treffpunkt Science City, Niko Beerenwinkel, head of the Computational Biology Group, gave a lecture on the great genetic variety within and between tumours. Applying analytical and statistical tools, he explains why in oncology, therapies of the future will have to be personalised to address the molecular spread of tumour cells and hence increase treatment success.
