is a Heidelberg-based research consortium that aims to develop innovative proteomic and metabolomics tools to detect, model and predict cancer recurrence. Cancer recurrence is a major global health problem and the main determinant of cancer-related death. Yet, no accurate predictors exist that indicate disease progression in individual patients to prompt therapy in a timely manner.
