Dutch Cancer Society grant for Geert Kops

Dutch Cancer Society grant for Geert Kops

UBC member Geert Kops, director of the Hubrecht Institute and professor of Molecular Tumor Cell Biology at the UMC Utrecht, received funding from the Dutch Cancer Society (KWF). His group will use the grant to investigate the role of large-scale chromosomal changes in the development of colorectal cancer. Ultimately, this could contribute to new methods for detecting and treating colorectal cancer in an early stage.

Geert Kops is group leader at the Hubrecht Institute, professor of Molecular Tumor Cell Biology at the University Medical Center Utrecht, Oncode Investigator and Scientific Director, and head of Oncode Institute.
