About me
Doctoral student in vaccine immunology in the Loré laboratory, with a focus on mRNA vaccines.
I received my medical degree from Karolinska Institutet in January 2021, and currently combine my PhD work with a clinical internship within the "Forskar-AT" programme.
Research
My studies focus on in-depth characterization of the immune response to mRNA vaccines, focusing on both the early innate immune events and the development of antigen-specific adaptive immunity. Additionally, my PhD work examines the B cell response to mRNA vaccination in hematopoïetic stem cell transplant recipients, and immune factors that influence the vaccine response.
