The aim is to leverage the results of research in clinical practice, implement the knowledge of science and biomedical research into diagnostic and therapeutic practice. MGA also strives for involvement in international research projects and supports the transfer of know-how of international research groups and academic institutions to its own research activities, and activities of BIOMEDIRES, the centre of excellent research, currently under development. As a result of national and local research activities, we want to contribute to broader international research in the field of international biomedical scientific tasks and problems. MGA employs highly competent researchers who are directly involved in the implementation of new diagnostic procedures into practice, monitors the implemented new methodologies and procedures and continuously evaluates their diagnostic validity in comparison with the original or other diagnostic methods. MGA is also directly involved in research and development of other diagnostic methods and procedures in the field of biomedicine with priorities in the field of genetics and genomics, metabolomics as well as diagnostics and prevention of oncological and other lifestyle diseases.
