About
Position: I am an associate professor at Dept. of Neuromedicine and Movement Science (INB) and a researcher in the K.G. Jebsen Centre for Alzheimer's Disease at the Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences (MH).
Scientific interest: Translational neuroscience. Being a neuroscientist with a background as a medical doctor, I have a strong interest in translational neuroscience. My research focus is the neurophysiology of cognition, with a special focus on memory. I have studied rodents and humans, including both healthy controls and patients with different types of brain disorders, using different methods. My aim is to bridge knowledge across studies in animals and humans, and to translate recent insights in the neurophysiology of cognitive functions into better understanding of human brain disorders.
Sustainability. One question has bugged me increasingly: "Why science, if we don't act accordingly?" Or, as Greta Thunberg asked the UN (2018): "What is the point of learning facts when the most important facts clearly means nothing to our society?" Since 2021 I got the opportunity to involve in sustainability work at the MH faculty and NTNU, and I also incorporate sustainability and environmental topics in my research and teaching.
Background: Cognitive neurophysiology and medicine
Medical doctor (NTNU) with research programme, medical internship / 'turnus'
PhD in Neuroscience (Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience / Centre for Neural Computation, NTNU). PhD thesis: Spatial representation in the brain - hippocampal impact on entorhinal grid cells.
Postdoctoral research:
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease - clinical, neurophysiological and cognitive neuroscience aspects, with focus on action selection and decision making (Dept. of Neuromedicine / St. Olav's Hospital, Trondheim and National Institutes of Health, USA).
Neurophysiology of the human temporal and frontal lobes related to memory, in context of epilepsy (National Institutes of Health, USA).
Current research:
Memory, space and time in the human brain, in context of Alzheimer's disease and COVID-19 (K.G. Jebsen Centre for Alzheimer's Disease - WP 4 & 5, Kavli Institute for Systems Neuroscience, NTNU / Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences, Germany / Dept. of Neuromedicine and Movement Science, NTNU). I currently lead a team of 7 resaerchers / students on transdisciplinary neuroscience projects, in collaboration with neuroscientific and clinical partners.
Teaching:
Lecturer / speaker about neuroscience for multiple educational levels in neuroscience, medicine and psychology, and for general and specialized audiences.
Lecturer / speaker about sustainability and health.
