معرفی
Simon Grund Sørensen is a Guest researcher at the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine within the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences at the University of Copenhagen, affiliated with the Molecular Aging Program focused on molecular mechanisms of aging and age-related diseases.
His research spans Cancer Genomics, DNA Repair, Aging Research, Molecular Biology, and Bioinformatics, investigating how DNA repair deficiencies drive characteristic mutational patterns across cancer types through genomic and computational approaches. This integrates molecular aging processes with cancer etiology to identify underlying genomic instability mechanisms.
His 2023 eLife publication on pan-cancer DNA repair deficiencies exemplifies his work in genomic analysis, revealing how defective repair pathways generate mutation signatures across diverse cancers. This research bridges cancer genomics and aging biology by connecting DNA repair mechanisms to genome-wide mutational landscapes.
