Within Tübingen's Cluster of Excellence "Image-guided and Functionally Instructed Tumor Therapies" (iFIT) more than 130 scientists strive to gain a deeper understanding of fundamental tumor biological processes in order to allow for a development of improved future cancer therapies. Scientists from the research areas "Functionally Instructed Tumor Therapies", "Immunotherapies" and "Molecular and Functional Multiparametric Imaging" are conducting boundless research. As a funding program of the federal and state governments in cooperation with the German Research Foundation, the program supports German universities in conducting and advancing internationally competitive top-level research. Within this program, iFIT is funded with 47.3 Million € and represents Germany's only cluster of excellence in the field of cancer research.
