The Molecular Diagnostics Unit’s (MDU) commitment to quality molecular testing, in both clinical and laboratory settings, ensures comprehensive support for cancer patient care and cancer research efforts by aligning with the growing needs of healthcare professionals and researchers. Thus, MDU plays a role in the Spanish healthcare system by offering a range of molecular diagnostic tests that aid clinicians in early cancer diagnosis, the detection of relapses, and monitoring therapy responses. These assays are constantly revised, integrating the latest diagnostic tests and upgrading the established ones. Likewise, the Unit provides support to CNIO’s Research Groups by analysing their samples for specific biomarker alterations or by providing specialised technical assistance. MDU is at the forefront of molecular diagnostics standardisation, collaborating with international and national organisations. Finally, through laboratory training, the Unit coaches biomedical students, technicians, and residents.
