Organisation profile

The Translational Medicine Operations Hub (TMOH) ensures a full support to clinical research from the planning of the clinical research studies to their execution and closure via the collection, processing, storage and analysis of high-quality biological samples and structured clinical data. 

The Translational Medicine Operations Hub (TMOH) includes the operational units of the LIH (CPMO, CIEC, CCMS, IBBL) and its collaborative platforms (LCTR, DMSP, LuxGen, RPP) to integrate and optimise their accessibility, workflows and project/portfolio oversight. 

The TMOH facilitates intra-institutional research, as well as transversal translational projects of “Research Luxembourg” and collaborations with external partners. These include publicly funded Research Projects like LITMUS, NCER-PD and CLINNOVA, as well as collaborations with industry partners. The central entry point for new projects is the CPMO, which will guide researchers and their projects through the governance and approval process, as well as plan and track project execution. 

The mission of TMOH is to improve patients’ lives by providing Operational Excellence: 

• Single Point of contact regarding Research Services for internal & external stakeholders 
• Seamless workflow and high-quality project execution 
• Consultation for projects regarding project design, operations, regulatory aspects, among others 
• Inbuilt collaboration (clear processes, interfaces, R&R) and exchange of resources (technologies, SME) 
• Transparent information/communication E2E (TMOH, LIH and beyond...) 
• Continuous development – of methods, technology, science, quality, and processes, among others
