LUMC is pioneering an innovative approach with a new catheter-based treatment for pulmonary embolism, enabling patients to recover more quickly and reducing the risk of death.
For patients with advanced cancer, standard treatments may no longer be effective. Research by the LUMC suggests that off-label medicines may offer a potential alternative treatment.
Growing older naturally coincides with a gradual loss of muscle mass and strength. Researchers at the LUMC and the Universities of Granada and AlmerÃa discovered a gut bacterium that may aid in slowing, or even preventing, this process.
Researchers at the LUMC have found that a combination of liver perfusion and immunotherapy can significantly improve the life expectancy of patients with metastatic ocular melanoma.
LUMC has received tens of millions for new research based on stem cells. The partnership between LUMC and reNEW consortium, aims to develop new treatments for partients with chronic diseases.
Leiden physicists Daniela Kraft and Julio Melio, together with their research team, have created soft structures that can change shape without external force. This research paves the way for translating metamaterials to the microscale.
