Short presentation
I am Senior lecturer in Applied Nuclear Physics and my research concerns our understanding of the fission process, the spitting of an atomic nucleus. Presently, I am responsible for two courses, Nuclear reactor physics at the Bachelor's Programme in Nuclear Engineering and Experimental methods at the Bachelor's Programme in Physics. I am also one of the Director of Studies at the department, with focus on pedagogical development.
I am member of mentorskollegiet that mentors new teachers.
