Charité Universitätsmedizin Berlin

Charité, Universitätsmedizin Berlin, is Europe's largest university hospital and hosts the Charité Comprehensive Cancer Center and the Berlin Institute of Health; it ranks twelfth in the Newsweek/Statista oncology list. Its cancer strengths lie in haematology, cell therapy and translational research carried out with the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine, with Ulrich Keilholz, Christof von Kalle, Lars Bullinger and the paediatric oncologist Angelika Eggert among its leaders. Nuclide links it to the Atlas pathology foundation model developed with Aignostics and Mayo Clinic, to Deutsche Krebshilfe and SIOP Europe, and to the idea of hospital-exemption cell therapies made at scale with a shared registry. Whether academic cell therapy manufacturing can match industry on quality and cost is the open question. Its cell therapy programme is the place to start.
