Short presentation
I am an associate professor in clinical nutriton and metabolism as well as an educational developer. I currently work 25% at the unit for Teaching and Learning, 25% at MedFarm's pedagogical research council - PRåM ; and 50% on leave for a drug development project. Furthermore, I am a member of the Collegium of Mentors (see more below). My current research is obesity and metabolic effects of altered sleep. As an educational developer, I am particularly interested in e-learning.

Biography
I am a member of the Collegium of Mentors because I find it stimulating and interesting to discuss and reflect on teaching and teaching methods.
I have over the years tried or seen others try different forms of teaching, and think it is interesting to study what works in the teacher-student meeting.
I have had many exciting mentor assignments in medicine and natural sciences, and I am very interested in getting more assignments from the humanities and social sciences; and I can also provide mentoring in English.
Research
This text is not available in English, therefore the Swedish version is shown.
Mitt huvudsakliga forskningsområde är för tillfället obesitas, mer bestämt medicinsk behandling, dock utan att vara anställd av universitetet. Jag bedriver även viss undervisning inom obesitasområdet, främst för läkar- och sjuksköterskeprogrammet.
