معرفی
Jenny Karlsson is a Researcher at Lund University, specifically working in the Department of Clinical Genetics and as part of the Lund University Cancer Center (LUCC). Her work focuses on the evolution of cancer cells, particularly in pediatric malignancies.
Her research interests span multiple areas of cancer biology including tumor evolution, genomic instability, neuroblastoma, and childhood cancers. She investigates how cancer cells evolve spatially within tumors and how this evolution affects treatment response, particularly chemotherapy resistance. Her work combines molecular biology techniques with spatial mapping approaches to understand tumor heterogeneity.
Analysis of her recent publications shows a strong focus on cancer evolution across different tumor types including neuroblastoma, Wilms tumor, and other childhood cancers. Her research consistently examines how genetic alterations drive tumor progression and treatment resistance, with particular attention to spatial heterogeneity within tumors. She frequently employs advanced genomic techniques including whole genome sequencing to track cancer cell evolution.
Dr. Karlsson has supervised 3 research projects according to her profile and has established collaborations across multiple institutions as evidenced by her co-authorship on publications with international researchers. Her work contributes to understanding cancer progression mechanisms which has implications for developing more effective therapeutic strategies.
