Organ-Specific Medicine Laboratory | Medical University of Gdańsk

Faculty of Medicine

As a part of the “Excellence Initiative – Research University” program, a new core facility – the Organ-Specific Medicine Laboratory – is starting operations at the Medical University of Gdansk. The unit was created thanks to the experience of the staff at the Department of General, Endocrine and Transplant Surgery, and the Department of Oncological Surgery, which were established within the structure of the Faculty of Medicine.

SCOPE OF SERVICES

The Organ-Specific Medicine Laboratory care facility provides access to clinical expertise and facilitates access to patients, including tissue and clinical data, for MUG, FarU and external collaborators.

Scope of activities conducted:

recruitment of patients from specific clinical areas for basic research and clinical trialsdesigning/consulting on the design of research studies involving patients for MUG colleagues and external collaboratorsconducting non-commercial and commercial clinical trialscollecting, cataloguing and freezing tissue samples from patientscollecting, cataloguing and transferring patients’ blood samples to the laboratorycollecting clinical information on patientsanalysis of clinical data of patients for scientific researinterpreting the clinical context of scientific findings

The foregoing capabilities of the Core Facility enable a translational approach to science, and will improve collaboration between MUG and external units. The Core Facility provides access not only to patient-obtained biological samples and clinical data, but more importantly: to experts who support study planning and result interpretation in a clinical context.
