Danish Center for Advanced Cell Analysis – Strengthening natural and biomedical sciences to promote translational research
Novo Nordisk Foundation
University of Southern Denmark, Odense
The study of cells and their functions in our body is crucial for understanding mechanisms of disease, and thereby allow the development of new diagnostic methods and drugs. At University of Southern Denmark (SDU), we aim to establish the “Danish Center for Advanced Cell Analysis”, a reference center for the analysis and isolation of any type of cells from body fluids or organs, derived from human or animal models of disease. Led by a team of top scientists from the Faculty of Health Sciences and the Faculty of Natural Sciences at SDU, the center will be placed centrally within the new building for Health Sciences, which connects the new hospital to main university campus. Equipped with the most advanced instruments for analyzing cells, called flow-cytometers, this center will promote substantial innovation and raise the quality of biomedical research at SDU, thereby creating the ideal environment for new ground-breaking discoveries that will benefit our society in the future.
