About me
I am a researcher in reproductive medicine and germ cell biology at the Department of Clinical Science, Intervention and Technology (CLINTEC) and the Division of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Karolinska University Hospital. My research primarily focuses on stem cell鈥揹erived embryo models (blastoids) and organoids, with the aim of advancing our understanding of early human development and reproductive health.
