Jelle Wesseling

Leon Wils

Since September 2024, I work as a postdoc in the group of Jelle Wesseling. My research focusses on the genomic and morphologic characterization of DCIS. I will use this information to further improve DCIS risk prediction and to find new targets for therapies, such as anti-cancer vaccines, to prevent malignant transformation of DCIS.

Fields of expertise

Molecular Pathology

Genomics

Computational Biology
