I have a M.Sc. in molecular cell biology form Södertörn University in 2003. 
My PhD was obtained from Karolinska Instutitet in 2007 working on the
development of a therapeutic vaccine for treatment of chronic hepatitis C
virus infection. After my PhD I worked for a couple of years as a post doc at
a research company developing vaccine adjuvants. Back at KI in 2009 as
assistant professor I continued working on vaccine development now as
treatment for chronic hepatitis B virus infection. In 2015 I joined GE
Healthcare (now Cytiva) exploring scalable production processes for proteins
and cell based vaccines. Since 2018 I am back at KI as project manager in the
VIVAC research group.
