Medical Delta Program 'CARES'

October 10, 2024: The Medical Delta program Cancer diagnostics for sustainable health care (CARES) has been launched, of which Miriam Menzel is one of the program leaders. CARES is a transdisciplinary collaboration between researchers from TU Delft, Erasmus MC, LUMC, and The Hague University of Applied Sciences.

Our research group will contribute to the program by realizing real-time ComSLI measurements of collagen fibers on excised tumor tissues during surgeries. In this way, we want to analyze stage and progression of the tumor and improve cancer diagnostics.
