About me
I am a medical doctor, specialised in anesthesia and intensive care. I have been affiliated with the research group Global Disaster Medicine - Health Needs and Response since 2020. Prior to that, in 2017, I presented my doctoral thesis Transfusion in critically ill patients: short- and long-term outcomes. I teach and tutor several courses at the centre. I also have an assignment as expert coordinator at the Centre for Health Crises at KI, in the field of critical care with limited resources.
Alongside my work at KI, I work as an anesthetist and intensive care physician at Södersjukhuset in Stockholm. I have also done field work with Médecins sans Frontières in Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria and Cameroon. Moreover, I recently worked for the WHO in Lebanon, where I am also conducting research.
