معرفی
Marieke Kuijjer is a Group Leader at the Norwegian Centre for Molecular Bioscience and Medicine, University of Oslo, leading the Computational Biology and Systems Medicine Group. Her academic focus spans gene regulatory networks, cancer genomics, bioinformatics, and systems medicine. She holds a PhD from Leiden University Medical Center (2013) and postdoctoral experience at Harvard and Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (2013–2018). Her research integrates multi-omics data to predict cancer outcomes and develops computational tools for gene network analysis.
Key awards include the Charles A. King Postdoctoral Fellowship and National Cancer Institute grants. She has authored over 50 peer-reviewed articles, emphasizing tumor microenvironment dynamics, sarcoma genomics, and machine learning in immunology. Her work bridges computational methods with clinical applications, such as creating digital twins for cancer patients and improving bioinformatics software quality through collaboration.
Current initiatives include studying osteosarcoma progression through longitudinal genomic analysis and leveraging single-cell transcriptomics for population-level gene regulatory insights. She collaborates internationally, including in the Fight Osteosarcoma and Euro Ewing consortia, advancing sample collection standards for rare cancers.
