The Department has an extensive and long-standing programme in studying the aetiology of cancer. Particular focus is on cancers with a suspected or known infectious aetiology, cancers that are likely to be influenced by endogenous hormones, and cancers that are potentially influenced by changes in immune status.

Major ongoing studies aim at elucidating the causes and/or prognostic determinants of lymp-homas (NHL, CLL and Hodgkin's Lymphoma), child-hood leukaemia, breast and ovarian cancers, testicular cancer, cancers of the cervix, anus, vulva/vagina and penis, AIDS-associated cancers, and skin cancers, including Kaposi's sarcoma. Many of these projects involve extensive collaboration with different laboratory disciplines.
