Team Groningen


Groningen University Medical Center is a European Reference Network (ERN GENTURIS) for Lynch syndrome. Current research lines focus on improvement of techniques for detection of germline variants, interpretation of these variants with the help of functional analysis and studying cancer risks associated with Lynch syndrome. Recently we have set up a new research line where we will study early colorectal cancer development in Lynch syndrome for which we have initiated a prospective multicenter biobank. Data and samples collected for this biobank will be used in the Indicate project, with a special focus on the inclusion of relatively understudied MSH6 and PMS2 carriers.
