About me
- I am Associate Professor (Docent) at MMK, KI, team leader of the "Multi-omics analyses in cancer" team which is part of the Clinical Genetics group.
I am also a Senior Consultant in Clinical Genetics at Karolinska University Hospital . At the clinic, I meet patients with hereditary cancer and at our clinical laboratory, I analyse constitutional variants in whole genome sequencing as well as somatic genetic alterations in haematological malignancies.
Research
- *Research projects:*
(1) Multi-omics analyses of liquid biopsies as a minimally invasive biopsy for diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring in adults and children with cancer
and other conditions.
(2) Hereditary Cancer: Multi-omics analyses for improvement of diagnostics of hereditary cancer as well as characterisation of clinical phenotype and evaluation of surveillance in rare hereditary cancer syndromes
Teaching
- Director of Studies for residents in Clinical Genetics at Karolinska University Hospital
Teacher for medical, biomedical and Ph.D. students at KI
