Sten Linnarsson is professor of molecular systems biology at Karolinska Institutet and co-founder of the Eukaryotic Single-cell Genomics national infrastructure at SciLifeLab.
He has pioneered single-cell RNA sequencing and recently completed a single-cell RNA expression atlas of the mouse nervous system.
He is also a member of the Organizing Committee of the international Human Cell Atlas Initiative.
