Jonas Demeulemeester

Biochemist and Computational Biologist, interested in tumour evolution, single-molecule multi-omics, and AI.

While my Ph.D. focused on retroviral integration targeting, drug discovery and chromatin readers, my postdoctoral research focused on cancer 'omics. I developed novel computational approaches and leverage large scale pan-cancer data as well as focused single-cell 'omics data to shed light onto tumor heterogeneity and evolution.

I currently head the Integrative Genomics Lab at the VIB – KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology, where we aim to:

  • deliver innovative tools and analysis pipelines for single-molecule multi-omics
  • push these techniques to the single-cell and spatial levels
  • scrutinise emergent tumour biology such as extrachromosomal DNA, RNA editing and translation.
  • leverage multi-region and time series data to paint a multi-omics picture of tumour evolution
