About me
- *Adjunct Professor of Clinical Bacteriology at the Department of Laboratory
Medicine as of 1 January 2022*
Primary position: Consultant at Karolinska University Hospital
Research
- Volkan Özenci is a senior consultant at the Karolinska University
Laboratory. His research focus is to improve clinical microbiological
diagnostics. He has developed several methods including a fast technique for
the analysis of bacteria in blood poisoning (sepsis) that cuts the time from
24 hours to two to four hours. Today, it is in clinical use at 40 per cent of
Europe’s major clinical laboratories.
His research group conducts clinical studies in collaboration with a wide
range of medical technology companies and has pending patent applications of
its own. The group performs research for development towards more
environmentally friendly clinical laboratories, given the fact that the
hospitals has extremely high plastic consumption.
Teaching
- Volkan Özenci is an experienced lecturer with several pedagogical awards and
leads several courses in clinical microbiology in the medical program at KI.
