About me

I am a postdoctoral researcher in Toxicology at the unit of Metals and Health
at the Institute of Environmental Medicine.
I recieved my master degree in Toxicology from Karolinska Institutet in 2017
and my PhD degree in 2022 from Karolinska Institutet with the thesis title
"Exploring toxicity and fate of metal-based particles in the lung : from
mechanistic screening to lung deposition modelling".
My research is focused on investigating and understanding mechanisms related
to particle toxicity, primarily using in vitro models and bioinformatic
approaches.
