The aims of GROW are: 🔵To prevent cancer, improve cancer diagnosis, increase survival rates of cancer patients, improve the quality of life and maintain optimal functional abilities of cancer patients. We look beyond survival and aim to achieve preservation and/or restoration of all functions determining health, being bodily functions, mental wellbeing, daily functioning, social participation, meaning and quality of life. We perform translational research covering the complete spectrum of cancer management from prevention to aftercare. 🔵To provide the best possible start in life by focusing specifically on a healthy conception, pregnancy and long-term health outcome. We do this by performing translational research on fertility, the role of the environment on the development of gametes, embryos, fetuses, newborns and children. In addition, we study the effect of pregnancy on women’s health.
