Dorthe Stensvold
Background and activities
Dorthe Stenvold is a researcher at K.G Jebsen Center for Exercise in medicine, Department of Circulation and Medical Imaging, at the Faculty of Medicine NTNU.
She has a master in Exercise Physiology from the University of Copenhagen, and a PhD in Clinical Medicine from NTNU.
Stenvold is the principal investigator for Generation 100, and her researc focus is the effect of aerbic training on morbidity and mortality in older adults. She has previously studied how exercise can be used as medicine in people with metabolic syndrome.
