About me

  • Research group leader for Neuroradiology focusing on Neurodegenerative and
    Neuroinflammatory disorders [1].
    After graduating from medical school at Karolinska Institutet (KI) in 2012, I
    undertook a two-year clinical internship at Västerås Regional Hospital.
    Thereafter, I completed my residency in Radiology at Karolinska University
    Hospital between 2014-2019. This was followed by a fellowship in
    Neuroradiology 2019-2022.
    Academically, I started conducting MRI research in 2009, writing my medical
    thesis on the topic of MRI detection of Cerebral microbleeds in Alzheimer's
    disease using Susceptibility-Weighted Imaging. My PhD focused
    on Neuroradiological aspects of Multiple Sclerosis [2] (MS), which I
    defended in 2015. I thereafter conducted a post-doctoral research fellowship
    at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School. My
    post-doctoral work focused on MS diagnostics using a combination of 7 Tesla
    MRI, 11C-PBR28 (2nd generation TSPO marker for microglia) PET-MR and Human
    Connectom Scanner with 300 mT/m gradients (compared to typical 40-80 mT/m
    clinical gradients). I also continued my work in developing and validating
    myelin quantification techniques.
    Upon my return to Karolinska, I established our research team at the Clinical
    Neuroscience department at KI, where we continue to focus on Quantitative
    imaging techniques and their applications to improve the diagnostics,
    prognostics and treatment evaluation in pathologies such as MS, dementia
    disorders, movement disorders and ALS. Lately, I have also been working with
    COVID-19.
