Visionary Research for Tomorrow's Medicine

The LOOP Zurich is a translational research center in Zurich dedicated to precision medicine*. It brings together the basic biomedical research and bioinformatics of two universities, ETH Zurich and the University of Zurich, with the clinical research of four university hospitals. The goal is to use translational research to rapidly develop new treatments for the benefit of patients.

The LOOP Zurich offers a unique opportunity to connect the university hospitals – with their direct access to patients and their understanding of patient needs – with the established research infrastructure of the University of Zurich and ETH Zurich. This makes it possible to respond to individual patient needs as quickly and comprehensively as possible.

* By precision medicine, we mean tailoring healthcare measures to the individual patient – or, more precisely, to the specific molecular mechanisms underlying their disease.
