Precision Oncology AI

We develop agentic and multimodal AI to support clinical research and decision-making in precision oncology, with a particular interest in rare and difficult-to-classify cancers.

Research

From complex data to clinical evidence

Our research brings together clinical, genomic, and molecular data to study how AI can inform cancer diagnosis, patient stratification, and treatment decisions.

Projects span oncology drug development, early clinical trials, sarcomas, and cancers of unknown primary. We develop methods for digital twins and clinical decision support and examine how agentic systems can help with complex cases, including molecular tumour boards for rare cancers.

Approach

Clinical oncology and computational science

The group connects methodological research with questions that arise in clinical oncology.

Its work draws on bioinformatics, single-cell technologies, and machine learning. The joint setting at IMAI and Gustave Roussy supports cross-border research between Heidelberg and one of Europe’s major centres for precision oncology.

01

Multimodal oncology

Integrate clinical, genomic, and molecular information for precision cancer care.

02

Agentic systems

Develop decision-support methods for complex and dynamic clinical questions.

03

Rare cancers

Study sarcomas and cancers of unknown primary, where evidence and expertise are scarce.

04

Clinical translation

Connect AI development with drug development, early trials, and clinical evaluation.
