Om mig
PhD and licensed psychologist working on the role of social behavior deficits for addictive disorders.
I received my PhD from the the Division of Psychology (prof Andreas Olsson), and the Centre for Psychiatry Research (Dr. Nitya Jayaram-Lindström) in 2025-06-13. I received my M.Sc. in Clinical Psychology at Karolinska Institutet in 2017, and my clinical licensure in 2018. I also hold B.A. in Philosophy from Uppsala University.
Forskningsbeskrivning
I have interest in the learning and decision-making mechanisms underlying
social-interactive behavior such as moral and prosocial behavior.
Specifically I try to understand how these mechanisms might be impaired in
clinical patient groups such as those suffering from addictive disorders.
The long term aim of my research is to identify individual markers and
develop measures of social impairments which might be used as preventive
measures as well as psychotherapeutic and pharmacological targets of
treatment. To meet these aims, I am using a multi-method approach including
behavioral experiments, computational modeling, neuroimaging, and clinical
trials.
Please feel free to contact me if you want to know more about my research or
discuss future collaborations or internships (min 3 months).
