iCAN aims to improve outcomes and quality of life of cancer patients.
We do this through cutting-edge research focused on improving understanding in immuno-oncology, tumor microenvironment and development of disease resistance.
Our research projects leverage the iCAN discovery platform to identify new targets and solutions for diagnosing and treating cancer.
The iCAN discovery platform links molecular profiling of tumors with broader health data of cancer patients, acting as a catalyst for breakthrough research and technologies.
The scale of data – 15,000 samples across different cancer types will be profiled by 2026 – enables real impact and broad studies across different cancer types.
The platform will enable an improved understanding of the complex interplay between cancer cells and the host.
Our approach is to keep the patient in the focus in all activities in developing a research and innovation hub in digital precision cancer medicine.
At the center of the ecosystem is the iCAN discovery platform leveraged in collaborative partnerships among researchers and the life science industry.

Marraskuussa vietetään kansainvälistä keuhkosyöpäkuukautta. Keuhkosyöpään sairastuneille ja heidän läheisilleen tarkoitetussa potilas-tutkijatapaamisessa Biomedicumissa tiistaina 15.11. klo 17-19 Read More »
Tänään on #maailmansyöpäpäivä. Syöpätutkimus on tärkeä osa syövän torjuntaa ja ainoa keino löytää uusia hoitoja. Suomessa tehty syöpätutkimus pelastaa suomalaisia potilaita. Siksi siihen pitää panostaa nyt ja tulevaisuudessa. https://twitter.com/yksymallimaa/status/1588140968460550144
