This characterises our way of working:

  • Responsibility
    We are committed to ensuring that everyone has the same right to health – regardless of the nature and extent of their diagnoses.
  • Conviction
    We are convinced that research is a highly effective means of improving diagnostic and therapeutic methods and that it must be oriented towards the patient’s benefit.
  • Principled loyalty
    We operate according to clear rules based on our charter, the principles of our foundation practices, an ethical foundation and our funding guidelines.
