Om mig

I am the head of the Product Development in Life Sciences course at KI since December 2021. In my pedagogic work I make use of my experience in synthetic biology wetware, digital health software engineering from both Oxford and Microsoft Research in Cambridge, as well as immaterial property, regulatory and commercialization processes from my positions as life science CTO and founder.

My research concerns mechanotransduction (Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2021) and product development for physiological disorders at large. I returned to Sweden in 2014 to delve into health care and turn my bioscience and engineering background into life science applications for clinical use.

Alongside my KI work, I hold a position as Senior Scientist and Technology Innovator at RISE Research Institutes of Sweden.
