Short presentation
PhD student at SWEDESD - Research and learning for sustainable development and global health and general pediatrician at Gävle Regional hospital. My research is focused on reducing perinatal complications and improving the identification of children at risk of cerebral palsy in low- and middle-income settings. I'm also interested in inflammatory and infectious diseases in childhood.
