About me

  • I am a medical doctor currently pursuing a PhD in neuroscience at the
    Marianne Bernadotte Centrum, Karolinska Insitutet.

Research

  • My research is aimed at investigating the multisensory control of eye
    movements from a broad, translational perspective. My clinical studies aim to
    quantify the visual, vestibular, and somatosensory components influencing
    reflexive eye movements. Through the use of eye-tracking, we quantify these
    involuntary responses so as to allow important clinical context for patients
    suffering from sensory impairments. This work focuses primarily on vertigo,
    motion-sickness, and spatial disorientation. My ambition is to work towards
    establishing quantifiable measurements of these subjective symptoms,
    providing patients and clinicians with valuable context for symptoms,
    treatments and other follow-up procedures.
    In order to better understand the nature of these results, I also perform
    basic science experiments aiming to elucidate the neural network
    underlying the multisensory control of eye movements. These studies
    primarily target the brainstem, which we investigate through
    electrophysiological recordings combined with anatomical mapping. As we learn
    more about the basic mechanisms involved in eye movement control, we adapt
    and develop our clinical studies, and vice versa.
