At the University Hospital Tübingen (UKT) and the Medical Faculty Tübingen (MFT), the excellent potential for improved research into the molecular basis and, in particular, novel treatment options for neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is being pooled in a University Center of Excellence (CoE) Tübingen, which is certified by the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS).The potential for improved research into the molecular basis and, in particular, novel treatment options for neuroendocrine tumors (NET) is being pooled in a university Center of Excellence (CoE) Tübingen, which has been certified by the European Neuroendocrine Tumor Society (ENETS). The ENETS Center of Excellence Tübingen is affiliated with the Comprehensive Cancer Center (CCC) Tübingen-Stuttgart / the Southwest German Tumor Center.
Our declared goal is to achieve innovative approaches in NET diagnostics as well as in NET therapy.
Accordingly, the ENETS CoE Tübingen defines itself as an institution in which all institutions of the UKT and the MFT cooperate in an excellent interdisciplinary manner in university patient care, basic research and translational therapy development. In addition, ENETS CoE Tübingen has developed special formats of teaching and training in order to sustainably involve and inspire young scientists and, beyond that, also nursing and study personnel for the challenging topic of research in the field of neuroendocrine tumors.
