about us

CoBioRes (Collaborative Biotech Research) was founded in 2013 by emeritus professor Désiré Collen and is funded by Life Sciences Research Partners (LSRP). The laboratories and offices of CoBioRes are currently located at Campus Gasthuisberg, providing an excellent environment for scientific interactions.

At CoBioRes, we aim to valorize projects in the field of oncology and to translate them into mature projects, ready to start clinical development. CoBioRes is focusing on the development of minimally toxic prodrugs of highly toxic compounds, based on its proprietary tetra-drug platform.
