Our Mission

Our mission is to train academic professionals who can collaborate, also with other disciplines, and have acquired the skills and knowledge to solve the big challenges we are facing in the (bio)medical domain, ultimately improving global health.

How do we achieve that? Already at the early undergraduate phase, students should learn by doing, via current societally relevant cases, learn through inter/transdisciplinary collaboration and with role models, patients and other stakeholders. We believe that creating synergy in this research-teaching nexus is the way forward.

For this purpose, we established the Biomedicine Student Research Hub, a unique laboratory space for students in the University Medical Center Utrecht where they, supported by dedicated staff, work together with researchers, medical doctors and patients. 

“The whole practical part was really fun and informative, and really gives a head start for the master’s internship"

Current Research Challenges

We are working on different research questions in the hub. Check out our current research challenges and see how you can collaborate with us on these challenges.
