Campus Bio-Medico University Hospital, managed by the Foundation, works in synergy with Campus Bio-Medico University of Rome (UCBM), a private university with full legal status established in 1993 to implement a cultural project focused on bringing the individual back to the center of biomedical sciences.
The hospital is characterized by synergy across the whole range of clinical, teaching and research activities.
In the project LaserBlood, Prof. Damiano Caputo is the principal investigator for FPUCBM. Prof. Caputo is the Director of Laparoscopy and Minimally-invasive Surgery and
Associate professor of General Surgery. His main clinical activity is oncologic surgery while his main research topic is pancreatic cancer.
The clinical and research experience in pancreatic cancer that Professor Caputo acquired in more than 20 years of activity, guarantee the LaserBlood consortium the presence of a researcher who deals with patient enrollment and follow-up, biological samples collection and critical analysis of the obtained results.
