MD, Karolinska Institutet, 2016
Research
- During my doctoral research period, I mainly focused on women with increased
hereditary risk of breast cancer who underwent risk-reducing mastectomy and
immediate breast reconstruction up to 20 years ago. We specifically studied
the long-term health-related quality of life, anxiety and depressive
symptoms, body image, sexuality, and satisfaction with the reconstructive
outcome from the women and their partners' perspective, and from a
more objective perspective using three-dimensional image analysis. I was
honoured to defend my thesis [1] on the first day of Breast Cancer Awareness
Month 2021. Currently I am focusing on applying my experiences with
patient-reported outcomes and three-dimensional imaging with an aim to
improve patient care and planning of individualised treatment options in the
clinical setting. Other professional interests are teaching and learning in
higher education as well as creating medical illustrations.
