About me
- Magister of philosophy in mathematics, philosophy, statistics and physics
from University of Stockholm 1971. PhD in electronics from the Physics
department, University of Stockholm 1984. Scientist and project manager at
Center for Dental Technology and Biomaterials (later named Center for Oral
Biology), Karolinska Institutet 1986-1999. Associate Professor in Medical
engineering at Karolinska Institutet since 1997. Several patents related to
medical applications of physics and measurement technology. Founded a company
1998 with focus on skin alterations, in particular skin cancer
www.scibase.se, CEO first 7 years, now scientific advisor. Member of the
International Committee for Electrical Bio-Impedance since 1992. Senior
Member of the IEEE since 2004. Faculty opponent or member of examination
committee for PhD examina in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Estonia, and Australia.
Referee for several international scientific journals. Expert examiner for
academic positions in Sweden and USA. Examiner for grant providers in Sweden
and Norway
*Teaching interest*
Lectured, developed training courses and study material, supervised, and
examined in electronics (analogue electronics, digital electronics,
measurement technology, transducers, circuit theory, signal processing) at
Stockholm University 1972-1987. In charge of an advanced course in Medical
measurements and signal processing at Karolinska Institutet since 1995
(students mainly from the Royal Institute of Technology KTH Stockholm).
Teach medical measurements, transducer technology, theory of science and
ethics in medical research on various courses within Karolinska Institutet,
KTH, and University of Southern Stockholm. Strong interest in scientific
history, scientific evolution, limitations of science, as well as foundations
and principles of ethics from a philosophical point of view. Supervisor for a
number of PhD-students and diploma workers at University of Stockholm,
Karolinska Institutet and Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm 5 have
so far successfully defended their PhD-theses, 2 were content with the
licentiate degree (between MSc and PhD).
Research
- *Research interest*
Bioelectrical phenomena, quantification and classification of tissue
alterations e.g. cancers of skin and mucous membranes, non-invasive
measurement methods, biological rhythms, transducers, inter disciplinary
science. Multi center study with a new technology for skin cancer detection
ongoing. Evaluation of new technologies aiming at non-invasive determination
of blood glucose ongoing.
