Short presentation
Consultant at the Intensive Care Unit, AnOpIVA, Akademiska sjukhuset, Uppsala.
Post-doctoral studies, Dept. of Surgical Sciences, Uppsala University, Uppsala.
My research explores pathophysiological mechanisms characterising respiratory mechanics during mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients. I conduct both translational and clinical research. I master lung mechanics and several lung imaging techniques (e.g., computed tomography, electrical impedance tomography) and MatLab.
