Rasmus Siersbæk

Rasmus Siersbæk is an Associate Professor at the Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Southern Denmark, focusing on transcriptional regulation and epigenetic mechanisms in cancer progression. His research bridges genomics, metabolism, and breast cancer biology.

• Academic Rank: Associate Professor
• Department: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
• University: University of Southern Denmark

Research Interests: Active in transcriptional control, epigenetics, and cancer cell heterogeneity. Key areas include MYC-driven oncogenesis, adipocyte differentiation, and chromatin remodeling.

Publication Trends: Recent work examines epigenetic switches in cancer, enhancer activation by MYC, and metabolic regulators like propionate in lung carcinoma. Collaborations span Europe and North America.

Scientific Awards:

• Villum Young Investigator Grant (2021)

Projects: Leads studies on MYC complexes, BRWD1 in breast cancer, and single-cell transcriptional regulation. Involves chromatin remodeling and epigenetic readers in tumor aggressiveness.
