Background
My background is in technical physics and electrical engineering (MSc-Y 1987), a PhD (1994) and Docent (1997) in Biomedical Instrumentation. Since 2002 I am Professor of Biomedical Engineering – minimally invasive instrumentation at Linköping University.
Research interests
My research interests lie in the field of neuroengineering and biomedical instrumentation and include:
- neuronavigation
- imaging methods
- biomedical optics
- modeling and simulation
- brain microcirculation
- translational research for clinical studies.
Main application areas are deep brain stimulation (DBS), optical guidance in neurosurgery, brain tumor surgery and monitoring methods in neurointensive care. The research is conducted in close collaboration with clinical researchers both nationally and internationally.
I am a recipient of the Otto Schmidt Award from the IFMBE, and a Fellow of IAMBE and EAMBES.
