Working as a bio̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ engineer at Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge and as a PhD student focusing on how inspiratory and expiratory CT images can be used to evaluate regional lung function

My research has primarily focused on chronic airflow limitation (CAL), a precursor to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), as well as establishing reference values in healthy populations. This has been made possible through the Swedish CArdioPulmonary bioImage Study (SCAPIS), a cross-sectional, prospective, population-based multicentre study involving 30, 000 middle-aged men and women. To date, few studies have evaluated computed tomography (CT) findings in individual lung lobes or other regional lung compartments. In an upcoming study, a larger cohort of participants with COPD will be available for analysis.

Since 2018, I have been teaching engineering students at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH), delivering lectures on the daily work of bio̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ engineers as well as the technical aspects of anesthesiology and intensive care. Topics include mechanical ventilators, anesthesia workstations, and infusion pumps. In addition, I am responsible for laboratory sessions on mechanical ventilators and infusion pumps. I have also supervised four bachelor’s thesis projects at KTH, all focused on deviations in drug delivery from infusion pumps.
