Translational Oncology Research Center

Develop diagnostic tools and therapeutic strategies to optimize cancer care with a focus on breast cancer in Qatar and beyond.

The Translational Oncology Research Center aims to achieve a better understanding of the cellular and molecular bases of cancer initiation and progression with a focus on breast cancer, which is the most common type of cancer among females globally.

The Translational Oncology Research Center’s highest priority is to shed more light on cancer issues that impact Qatar and the Arab region, areas of the world that are underrepresented in cancer research.

A new relevant and contemporary direction for the center is to conduct research in the area of infectious diseases and immunity.
