About me

Im a Post-doc in Maja Jagodic´s neuroimmunology unit and a resident
physician at the neurology clinic at Karolinska hospital.
SSMF fellowship 2022
SSMF fellow 2022
M.D Karolinska institutet 2005-2012
Ph.D Karolinska institutet, CNS, neuroimmunology 2012-2021

Research

My main focus is on the role of microglial cells in chronic CNS inflammation
such as progressive multiple sclerosis. I'm interested in functional
microglial phenotypes and how these are affected by environment and
treatments, and how we can utilize this to benefit patients. During my PhD, I
studied the protective microglial function in clearing and degrading debris
through autophagy in experimental MS models. My aim during my post-doc is to
translate these findings to human disease.
