The central concern of the Comprehensive Center for Pediatrics (CCP) is patient-centred medical care for acutely and chronically seriously ill children and adolescents, i.e. from the unborn or the smallest premature infant to young adults, according to the principle of "evidence-based medicine". In order to realise this, the aim should be to consolidate facilities, bundle competences across departments and establish and expand cooperation in research and teaching in order to give seriously ill children a chance of a fulfilled life with little suffering.

Cancer is a central issue within our society. It can affect anyone - but everyone can help. It is only through research that will we be able to cure this insidious disease in the future. MedUni Vienna launched its Cancer Research Initiative in 2005, in order to promote university cancer research and to secure MedUni Vienna's position as a leading research establishment.

Every year, the Institute of Cancer Research initiates around 20 innovative research projects. Because of the Institute's association with the Medical University of Vienna and its proximity to Vienna General Hospital, the areas of basic research and clinical practice can work very closely together and research findings can be incorporated directly into diagnostics and treatment.
