Ragnhild Støen
Background and activities
I have a position as head of Neonatology at St. Olavs hopsital and is associate professor at IKOM, NTNU. I am a neonaytologist by training and has worked as a consultant in neonataology for many years. I am part of the CEBRA research group at IKOM, and I teach and do research on topics related to clinical neonatology.
Particular interests are early neuroprotection after perinatal asphyxia, early dettection of cerebral palsy in high-risk infants and ethical challenges related to infants born at the border of viability. I am also involved in several projects on newborn health in a global perspective.
