Therese Kellgren

Therese Kellgren is an Associate Professor at the Department of Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics, Umeå University. She is also affiliated as a research fellow at the Umeå Mathematics Education Research Centre (UMERC). Her work bridges mathematical statistics and bioinformatics, focusing on computational analysis of biological systems and rare disease genetics.

Her research interests include statistical modeling, gene co-expression networks, and microbial genomics in cancer. She develops computational frameworks for analyzing DNA/RNA data and identifying disease-causing mutations. Her contributions span bioinformatics, cancer immunology, and rare disease diagnostics.

Key publication trends reveal expertise in microbial genomics (e.g., Staphylococcus epidermidis), genetic mutation analysis (e.g., COL17A1, MERTK), and immune profiling in colorectal cancer. Her work often involves interdisciplinary collaborations with medical researchers and bioinformaticians.
