Andreas Mund, PhD profile page

Dr. Andreas Mund leads spatial proteomics research in the Matthias Mann lab at the University of Copenhagen and co-founded OmicVision Biosciences to translate academic discoveries into clinical applications. His engineering background drives innovative approaches, bridging advanced imaging with molecular biology. Dr. Mund earned his PhD. in molecular biology from the University of Hamburg after studying biotechnology engineering and biology in Germany. He completed a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship at the Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research, focusing on DNA damage response, chromatin function and high-content microscopy. In 2017, Dr. Mund joined Professor Mann's group as assistant professor, advancing to tenured associate professor. This transition launched his groundbreaking work establishing Deep Visual Proteomics. The technology platform combines advanced imaging with comprehensive mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Dr. Mund's research focuses on spatial proteomics technologies, with DVP representing his most significant contribution. This approach integrates high-resolution microscopy, AI-guided image analysis and ultra-sensitive mass spectrometry. The method analyzes protein expression at single-cell resolution while preserving tissue spatial context. Through OmicVision Biosciences, Dr. Mund translates academic research into commercial applications benefiting patients globally. The company operates on the conviction that Deep Visual Proteomics will enable next-generation precision medicine.
