I am an Associate Professor in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism, as well as an Educational Developer. My current main research area is the clinical treatment of obesity. I began my teaching career in the mid-1990s, where I have taught nutrition within the Faculty of Medicine. I have previously worked at the Unit for Teaching and Learning and at MedFarm's Pedagogical Research Council (PRåM). Furthermore, I am a member of the Collegium of Mentors (see more below).

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

My main research area is obesity, more specifically medical treatment, although I am not employed by the university. I also conduct some teaching in the field of obesity, primarily for the medical and nursing programs.
