Peter Røgen

Peter Røgen is an Associate Professor at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science, Technical University of Denmark (DTU). His research bridges Differential Geometry with Structural Biology, focusing on mathematical modeling of protein folding and structural descriptors.

• Develops low-dimensional metric maps for the protein universe
• Works on protein structure prediction from amino acid sequences
• Collaborates with companies via ESGI workshops on applied geometry problems

Research Trends in his recent publications include geometric obstruction analysis, topological constraints in protein alignment, and mathematical optimization for structural refinement. His work combines knot theory, differential geometry, and computational biology to solve problems in protein structure modeling.

He has supervised PhD projects on protein structure optimization and geometric knot theory, and participated in pump geometry design collaborations with engineering departments. His methodological contributions include Gauss integrals for conformational analysis and elastic curve modeling for structural comparison.
