Short presentation
This text is not available in English, therefore the Swedish version is shown.
Jag arbetar som neurolog med inriktning mot neurogenetiska sjukdomar och disputerade 2019 med en avhandling om biomarkörer i ryggmärgsvätska vid Huntingtons sjukdom. Jag försöker hitta synergier mellan kliniskt arbetssätt och insamlandet av data för forskning för att förbättra vård och behandling vid neurogenetiska sjukdomar.
