LiU 50 Years Once upon a time, Linköping University was just an idea. Today, we stand as living proof of what courage, curiosity and free thoughts can achieve. We celebrate that throughout 2025!

We are now entering LiU's birthday month!
It was on 28 May 1975 that Linköping University was inaugurated.

Kicking off an exciting Clinical Cancer Genomics 2025 conference with an overview of national molecular profiling strategies of 6 EU countries. Important points:
-WGS provides prognostic info (not just actionable targets)!
-Need to more data on various ancestries
-Need to increase testing!
#CCG2025

Welcome to our lab! We dive deep into the mysteries of GI cancers and their metastatic journey, unraveling patterns to outsmart cancer. Our mission? To turn cutting-edge research into real clinical impact. Follow along for discoveries, insights, and a shared passion for science! 🧬🔬 #CancerResearch

Our first release in the attempt to build the Transcription Factor Binding (TFB)-OMICS during #DevBio is now out in Development @dev-journal.bsky.social

Warning signs of childhood cancer

It's International #ChildhoodCancer Day.

Each year, 400 000 children & adolescents develop #cancer. Common types of childhood cancer include:

🔹Leukaemia
🔹brain tumours
🔹lymphomas
🔹solid tumours (such as neuroblastoma & Wilms tumour)

Artificial intelligence improves mammography-based breast cancer risk prediction Artificial intelligence (AI) is enabling us to delve deeply into the information inherent in a mammogram and identify novel features associated with high risk of a future breast cancer diagnosis. Here, we discuss how AI is improving mammographic density-associated risk prediction and shaping the future of screening and risk-reducing strategies.

Artificial intelligence improves mammography-based breast cancer risk prediction. #TrendsInCancer

"AI can identify parenchymal patterns that are associated with a high risk of future breast cancer diagnosis."
