Prof. Søren Brunak
Søren Brunak, Ph.D., is a professor of Disease Systems Biology and Director in the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research at University of Copenhagen. His program combines molecular level systems biology data with analysis of healthcare sector phenotypic data (electronic patient records, registry information and biobank questionnaires) to understand multimorbidities and discriminate between treatment related disease correlations. This stratifies patients not only from their genotype, but also based on the clinical descriptions in their medical records and is particularly relevant in the context of the precision medicine agenda.
