About

Postdoctor in the Departement of Neuromedicine and Movement Science, Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), part of the research group in geriatrics, movement science and stroke (GeMS). Consultant in geriatric medicine in St.Olav hospital, Trondheim university hospital.

I am a medical doctor and graduated from NTNU in 2003. I did my training in internal and geriatric medicine in Trondheim. I attended the European Academy for Medicine of Ageing (EAMA) in 2015-16, an advanced postgraduate course in academic geriatrics for researchers and university teachers from all over Europe. I became a specialist in geriatric medicine and internal medicine in 2019. The same year I defended my thesis "Progression of Alzheimer's disease - The Impact of Cardiovascular Comorbidity on Disease Progression and Clinical Profile"

My research interests are in dementia and cognitive impairment, especially vascular cognitive impairment. My Ph.D. work was done on a clinical study where I investigated whether the disease progression in Alzheimer's disease was influenced by concomitant vascular disease. Currently my research is on cognitive impairment after stroke, based on two large Norwegian stroke studies, the Nor-COAST study and MIDNOR stroke). I am particularly interested in the long-term trajectories of cognitive function after stroke.

I enjoy teaching geriatric medicine to medical students and master students and at the hospital I am responsible for the training in geriatric medicine for junior doctors.
