About me

  • I am a postdoctoral researcher at Karolinska Institutet and work as process leader for equity in cancer care at the Regional Cancer Centre Stockholm-Gotland. I am an affiliated researcher at Stockholm University of the Arts in the profile area Site, Event, Encounter.



    I have a background in design and healthcare science with a PhD from KI. My research takes a transdisciplinary approach to health promotion and equity in relation to aging, severe illness, and the end-of-life. Through participatory action research I partner with community and healthcare stakeholders to collaboratively develop knowledge and create meaningful change.

    I currently lead several research projects, including on LGBTQ+ perspectives on dying, death, loss, and care at the end-of-life, and the end-of-life, improving cervical screening for transgender people, and research addressing cancer disparities based on socioeconomic conditions in Sweden. I also work on research investigating mental health among older LGBTQ+ people in Sweden.
