Paul is a bioinformatician with a broad scope of interests. He studied Bioinformatics at the Free University in Berlin and got his PhD at EMBL in Heidelberg, working on comparative cancer genomics using whole exome and whole genome as well as whole transcriptome sequencing. A PostDoc at CBMR in Copenhagen was focused on metagenomics of the gut microbiome and how it relates to colorectal cancer followed by a second PostDoc at the Medical Faulty in Lund, where he worked on proteogenomic and proteotranscriptomic analyses of breast cancer. Paul has tried to work with a variety of different technologies and biological questions over the years and is always happy to delve into something new and exciting with the opportunity to learn and expand his scientific repertoire.
