Our research is focused on the etiology, (early) diagnosis and pathophysiology of inherited metabolic disorders (‘inborn errors of metabolism’) and acquired, i.e., lifestyle- and age-related metabolic diseases.
To achieve our mission we have four major goals:
* Fundamental and Applied Research aimed at understanding molecular principles of metabolic health and mechanisms underlying the development of inborn and acquired metabolic diseases
* Accelerating Translational Research to convert novel insights into improved diagnostics and/or effective prevention and treatment strategies
* Advanced Teaching, to educate the next generation of (bio)medical professionals
* Generating Societal Impact, that contributes to personalised health(y ageing) for all
