About me
- I graduated from Karolinska Institutet in 2013, as a "sjukgymnast", I have
later chosen to change my credentials to physiotherapist. I have mainly
worked in primary care clinically but also in sports medicine in handball and
soccer at various levels. My research interest became greater when I studied
for my master's in sports science at Linnaeus University. During my master's
thesis, I contacted a tendinopathy researcher at Monash University. We are
still in contact today and write articles together. I have now completely
changed my research field, and I am doing my doctoral position at Pernilla
Lagergren's group in oesophagal and gastric cancer.
Research
- In two of my sub-studies, I will use data from an ongoing cohort study on
people who have undergone surgery for oesophagal cancer. Here I will
investigate how disease-specific symptoms change over time and whether these
have any association with a certain number of modifiable factors. I will also
examine the prevalence of many health-related outcome measures up to 8 years
after surgery. In a third study, I will collect self-care advice from gastric
and oesophagal cancer patients and compile these.
