CREATE Health, inaugurated in 2006 with a focus on precision medicine, is a strategic centre for translational research focusing on the early diagnosis and prognosis of cancer, as well as the development of novel treatment strategies.

Today CREATE consists of scientists from four different faculties: medicine, engineering, natural sciences and social sciences, hosted by LTH and is located at Medicon Village in Lund. CREATE Health brings together, both physically and logistically, researchers from such diverse fields as bioinformatics, nanotechnology, proteomics, transcriptomics, cancer genetics and tumor cell biology with clinical oncologists from Lund University Hospital, thereby creating a unique integrative environment highly qualified for solving complex clinical problems.
