Om mig
I work as an Alliance Manager for partnerships between academia and industry.
My main role is supporting KI researchers in establishing and maintaining different types of collaborations with our corporate partners.
I have a PhD in Medical Sciences from Karolinska Institutet with a focus on pharmacology of cytostatic drugs in patients with hematological malignancies following conditioning regimens prior to HSCT.
Forskningsbeskrivning
My research was around studying the pharmacology of Busulphan, a cytostatic drug used in conditioning treatment prior to HSCT, and understanding the side effects such as hepatotoxicity and neurotoxicity manifested in patients with hematological malignancies.
