About me

Jessica Norrbom is a molecular biologist and has a PhD in physiology from
Karolinska Institutet. She has a position as Lecturer and teaches physiology
at several of Karolinska Institutet's programmes and courses. Her research is
about molecular responses to different types of exercise – why does it work
so well as it does when we are physically active?
Jessica Norrbom also has a great interest in outreach and popular science in
the field of physical activity, diet and health, and she is the co-author of
several books in Swedish.
