K1 Excellence Centre microONE - microplastic & cancer 2022-2025

microONE is a research project elucidating the knowledge gap on the relationship between micro-/nanoplastic particles and cancer. The community of researchers and industry partners including TissueGnostics work together to provide evidence on how different particles influence tumor development and spread by using colorectal cancer (CRC), one of the most frequent tumor entities and prone to contact with micro- and nanoparticles in the gut, as an example.
