About me
- I'm an affiliated researcher in the PeriBrainCare group. My PhD dissertation explored assessment and identification of postoperative cognitive changes in older adults. Current research interests are cognition, recovery, behavioral science, bioethics.
Teaching
I transform research on postoperative cognition and recovery into engaging learning experiences for academic, clinical, and public audiences. I have several years of experience in clinical supervision. During 2018–2019, I hosted the popular science podcast Specialistpodden. My current teaching includes guest lectures, professional development for clinicians, science communication to the public, supervision and examination of bachelor-level theses.
