About me
- PhD degree (Experimental Oncology) 2004, and Docent in Experimental Pathology
obtained 2012 at Karolinska Institutet i Stockholm, Sweden (Assoc Prof
equivalent). At present researcher at the Department of Medical Biochemistry and
Biophysics, KI, SciLifeLab in Stockholm. Besides being involved research I am also active in teaching medical students (former DFM1, now known as BV2), foreign medical doctors aiming for license, and students at the Biomedicine program (course Biochemistry). I´m also supervising postdoctoral fellows, PhD students and master students. Several tasks in peer review, editorial board, and serving on expert panels.
Fellowships and grants
Swedish Research Council (VR), Young Researcher grant, 2012-2014
Postdoctoral fellowship awarded by the Swedish Cancer Society (Cancerfonden), 2007 - 2010.
Postdoctoral fellowship awarded by the Swedish Research Council (VR), 2005-2006.
Grants from among others: Swedish Research Council, Radiumhemmets funds, Magnus Bergvall foundation, Åke Wiberg foundation, 2008-2009.
Research
- We are specifically interested in molecular mechanisms underlying the
regulation of ribosome biogenesis, how the cell senses errors in the complex
process of ribosome biogenesis and how these processes in turn can be used in
the development of novel anti-cancer therapies.
To investigate ribosome biogenesis and nucleolar structure, the team uses
various microscopy technologies, ribosome profiling, rDNA assays,
transcriptomics, translatomics, and proteomics. We also work a lot with small
molecules and functional screens.
Main lines and interests of research:
1. Characterization of ribosome biogenesis regulatory proteins and
potential role in cancer development, biomarker discovery for precision /
personalized cancer medicine.
2. Regulation of ribosome biogenesis and protein synthesis in normal
CNS cells and in glioma, including heterogeneity of ribosome in relation to
glioma cellular diversity.
3. Targeting of ribosome biogenesis or mature ribosome function in
cancer.
4. Functional studies of ribosomal proteins.
