Om mig

  • Leg psykolog, specialist i neuropsykologi och docent i klinisk neurovetenskap.

    Min forskning handlar huvudsakligen om kognitiva funktioner och fatigue vid olika medicinska tillstånd. Jag har framför allt undersökt metoder att mäta kognitiv uttröttbarhet vid förvärvade hjärnskador, olika hormonella tillstånd, långvarig smärta och nu senast hos patienter med kognitiva nedsättningar och fatigue efter post-covid. Tyngdpunkten ligger framför allt på neuropsykologiska metoder men i forskningen ingår även andra undersökningar såsom fMRI och blodbiomarkörer.

    Utöver forskning är jag verksam som biträdande studierektor vid Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper vid Danderyds sjukhus och utvecklingsledare på Rehabiliteringsmedicinska universitetskliniken vid Danderyds sjukhus.

    Long-lasting post-COVID symptoms have severe implications for affected individuals, the healthcare system, and society as a whole. This project focuses on two common symptoms in this patient group, cognitive and olfactory deficits. We aim to increase the knowledge regarding (a) long-term effects (up to 3 years) on cognitive and olfactory function after mild COVID-19, (b) factors associated with recovering from such deficits, (c) neurological bases of cognitive and olfactory deficits, and (d) associations between remaining deficits and returning to previous levels of functioning and activities (e.g. work). The proposed project is a follow-up of an ongoing study
    following these patients over time is critical for understanding the long-term effects. The project consists of 3 parts: (1) Longitudinal follow-up of a clinical sample of post-COVID patients following mild COVID-19 with a third cognitive, olfactory, and functional assessment, (2) A second magnetic resonance imaging assessment of a subgroup of this sample and matched controls, (3) A new online questionnaire targeting functioning and well-being of a large sample of post-COVID patients, diagnosed during the first years of the pandemic. Together, the results of this project will provide important new knowledge regarding the long-term effects of COVID-19 on cognitive and olfactory performance, which factors may affect the development in these domains over time, and how they relate to functioning in everyday life.

    Long-lasting post-COVID symptoms may have severe implications for affected individuals and the healthcare system. This project focuses on two common symptoms in this patient group, cognitive and olfactory deficits. We aim to increase the knowledge regarding (a) nature, severity, and duration of long-term effects on cognitive and olfactory function after mild COVID, (b) which individuals are more likely to be affected by and recover from such deficits, (c) underlying mechanisms, and (d) associations between these deficits and returning to previous levels of functioning. Longitudinal follow-up of these patients is vital to understand the long-term effects. It is further unknown how many individuals are affected by subclinical cognitive impairments following a COVID-19 infection. The project consists of 3 parts: (1) Longitudinal follow-up of a clinical sample (Danderyd rehabilitation medicine clinic) of post-COVID patients with repeated cognitive, olfactory, and functional assessments, (2) Magnetic resonance imaging assessments of a subgroup of this sample and a matched control group, (3) Repeated cognitive testing of a population sample comparing cognitive trajectories of persons with and without previous COVID-19. These data collections will provide important new knowledge regarding the long-term effects of COVID-19 on cognitive and olfactory performance, which factors may affect the longitudinal development in these domains, and how they relate to functioning in other areas.
