Kristoffer Vitting-Seerup

Kristoffer Vitting-Seerup is an Associate Professor at the Department of Health Technology, Technical University of Denmark, specializing in Bioinformatics and Isoform Analysis. His research focuses on leveraging RNA sequencing, alternative splicing, and protein domain variants to advance cancer genomics and neuro-oncology.

• Current academic rank: Associate Professor
• Key collaborations: DTU, University of Copenhagen, international cancer research teams
• Supervisory role: 5 PhD students in projects spanning machine learning for single-cell sequencing and isoform-level systems biology

His work demonstrates strong emphasis on transcriptomics in glioblastoma, with recent publications analyzing tumor infiltration, neurodevelopmental pathways, and therapy resistance mechanisms. Articles reveal expertise in alternative splicing's role in biological signaling, protein domain functional diversity, and genomic stability in cancer stem cells.

Research tools developed include satuRn for transcript usage analysis and IsoformSwitchAnalyzeR for splicing variant characterization. Current projects aim to improve clinical diagnostics through machine learning frameworks and enhance understanding of isoform-level biology in diseases.
