Jørgen Wesche

Jørgen Wesche is Professor II at the University of Oslo's Department of Biochemistry and group leader at the Norwegian Radium Hospital. His research investigates sarcoma development mechanisms through genomic and proteomic approaches, focusing on fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) signaling and intracellular transport.

Key discoveries include regulation of FGFR endocytosis and phosphorylation dynamics. Research has identified novel cancer cell programs targetable for therapy.

Published extensively on FGF/FGFR roles in carcinogenesis and intracellular trafficking pathways.
