Prof Dr med Jan Stöhlmacher is a professor of internal medicine, specializing in hematology and internal oncology. His specialist areas of focus include cancers of the internal organs and tumor therapy supported by genetic analyses. He has written numerous publications and scientific articles for medical textbooks. His many years as head of the oncological outpatient clinic at Dresden University Hospital, as well as the fact that his brothers have cancer, have sensitized him to dealing with patients in a trusting manner.
