Our Consortium
OMNIA connects academic institutions,
clinical organisations and industry partners across Europe, North America and Asia. Our network spans 15 countries and brings complementary expertise to the study of nanoparticle–tumour interactions.
Complementary expertise
Different diciplines, one shared research programme.
Materials scientists
Develop and characterise nanoparticles.
Cancer Biologists and Clinical Partners
Bring disease models and translational
perspectives
Imaging, Spatial Biology computational teams
Connect cellular responses with tissue context.
Working together allows these capabilities
to contribute to a shared research programme.
Consortium Network
A global research network spanning Europe, North America and Asia
Coordination and scientific leadership
