Danish Research Center for Cancer Surgery

ACROBATIC (Research Collaboration Across Surgical Oncology for Better Patient Care) is a Danish research center and collaborative network consisting of surgeons, clinicians, experts, and researchers within the field of surgical oncology. Our vision is to cure more patients from solid cancer and to improve quality of life beyond surgical cancer treatment.

Clinical Focus Areas

Through national studies, ACROBATIC works to create evidence to support surgical treatment of cancer, which has the potential to be tailored the individual patient. The work is executed within the three prioritized Clinical Focus Areas (CFAs), prehabilitation, surgical innovation, and survivorship, which are relevant across the 11 participating Danish Multidisciplinary Cancer Groups (DMCGs).

Work Packages

ACROBATIC has more than 43 research projects called Work Packages (WPs), which are covered by one or more of the Clinical Focus Areas (CFAs) and supported by the National Infrastructures (NIs). The research projects address and reduce known barriers within surgical research and support a broader patient, health, and community perspective.

National infrastructures

ACROBATIC has eight defined National Infrastructures (NIs) that address and reduce known barriers in surgical research, support a broader patient, health care and societal perspective, and contribute to the consolidation of a strong national cross- and inter-disciplinary research collaboration.
