TEDD Visit Research & Education at University Children’s Hospital Zurich KISPI

At the University Children’s Hospital Zurich (KISPI), some of Europe’s most dedicated doctors and researchers unite in the fight against childhood cancer, combining cutting-edge science with compassionate care.

At the University Children’s Hospital Zurich (KISPI), some of Europe’s most dedicated doctors and researchers unite in the fight against childhood cancer, combining cutting-edge science with compassionate care. 

A particular focus lies on brain tumors such as diffuse midline glioma (DMG/DIPG), among the most challenging in pediatric oncology. To address this, KISPI established a DIPG/DMG Center of Expertise and leads DMG-ACT (Diffuse Midline Glioma – Adaptive Combinatorial Therapy), an international initiative accelerating access to innovative treatments. Central to this research are drug screenings and advanced tumor cell cultures that help identify promising therapies and predict patient responses. 

The hope driving these efforts is clear: through collaboration and investment in both science and care, to change the story for children and families facing this devastating disease.
