Short presentation
I am an Associate Professor and SciLifeLab Fellow focusing on drug development and pharmaceutical nanotechnology. Previously, I managed several innovation projects in the R&D of a global material and life sciences company developing nutraceutical formulations. Furthermore, I have a strong background in the scalable synthesis and characterization of functional nanomaterials focusing especially on their application in biomedicine.
