Speaking on the molecular profiling of genitourinary cancers

Prof. Compérat’s research focuses on the pathological and molecular characterization of urological cancers, particularly bladder, prostate, kidney, and testicular tumors. Her work aims to improve the accuracy of diagnosis, prognostic risk stratification, and treatment selection through the integration of histopathology with molecular biomarkers and emerging pathological classifications. She has made significant contributions to international consensus guidelines, including the WHO Classification of Urinary and Male Genital Tumours, and is actively involved in research exploring the pathological correlates of response to systemic therapies, as well as the implementation of precision medicine in genitourinary oncology.
