Founders
Qlucore began as a collaborative research project at Lund University, Sweden, with researchers in the Departments of Mathematics and Clinical Genetics.
From the beginning, the main problem the project faced was the vast amount of high-dimensional data generated by microarray gene expression analysis. As a result, it became clear that an interactive software tool was needed to conceptualize this information.
In 2007 the company was founded by Magnus Fontes, Thoas Fioretos, Johan Råde and Carl-Johan Ivarsson.
