Project Objective

Given the significant prognostic value offered by the knowledge of the DIRC3 genotype, we anticipate that understanding the biological basis of a predisposition to DTC associated with this gene will allow the detection of oncogenic aberrations of even greater clinical importance. This may enable the identification of new diagnostic markers of the disease and allow the identification of high-risk DTC patients requiring closer supervision and more radical treatment. The results of the project will be published in the scientific press and will form the basis of the project lead's doctoral dissertation.
