معرفی
Per Uhlén is a Professor at the Department of Medical Biochemistry and Biophysics, Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm. His research focuses on cell signaling mechanisms in neuroscience and cancer, utilizing advanced imaging techniques like light-sheet microscopy and spatial transcriptomics. He holds adjunct roles at RIKEN Brain Science Institute (2017–2018) and Keio University (2017–2020).
Education:
- Master of Science in Engineering Physics (KTH Royal Institute of Technology, 1993–1998)
- PhD in Medical Sciences (Karolinska Institutet, 1998–2002)
- Postdoctoral studies at Yale University and Marine Biological Laboratory (2003–2005)
Research Interests:
His group investigates intracellular calcium signaling, tumor microenvironment dynamics, and neurodevelopmental processes. They develop novel tools for 3D tissue imaging and integrate single-cell omics to study disease mechanisms. Key areas include microglia function in neuroinflammation, glioma biology, and stem cell pluripotency regulation through Ca2+ pathways.
Labs & Teams:
He leads the Per Uhlén Group, focusing on molecular neurobiology and cancer systems biology. Collaborative projects include spatial transcriptomics initiatives and drug discovery for radiation-induced tissue damage.
