“My mantra is the right care for the right patient at the right time”
With a background in gaming and simulation, I try to contribute to a multi-dimensional understanding of how we support citizens in managing their health.
My mantra is the right care for the right patient at the right time, with the right resources and the right information in the right place.
There is a lot of focus on health data at the moment. Leading consortia in EU programmes and public partnerships, trying things out before they can be formulated as established research areas.

“We aim to improve the lives of patients with cardiovascular disease”
I work on advanced medical technologies, that aim to enhance the quality of life of patients with cardiovascular disease. My experimental research uses sensor systems, soft robotic actuation, biomedical engineering, signal processing, and physiological test-rigs.
I am currently leading research projects funded by Vinnova, Vetenskapsrådet, and Digital Futures. My group includes Aurora Rosato and Emanuele Perra.

“I have a specific focus on ageing population and conversational AI”
My research investigates societal impacts of the application of artificial intelligence in health and well-being, with a specific focus on ageing population and conversational AI.
I work with participatory design and human-centered design to increase user involvement throughout the design process. Application areas are social robotics, medical and health technology and wearable sensor systems.
My current collaborators in projects funded by Digital Futures are Department of Speech, Music and Hearing (MTH) at KTH, Division Robotics, Perception and Learning (RPL) at KTH and Department of Computer and Systems Sciences (DSV) at Stockholm University.

“I work on ICT solutions for healtcare, well-being and sports”
I work on information and communications technology (ICT) solutions, including computer communications, wearable sensors, Internet of Things, and machine learning-based data analysis, in the application areas of healthcare, well-being, and sports.
My research is applied and based on experimental approaches. I have multiple collaborations with Karolinska University Hospital. Senior IEEE Member. Faculty member of Digital Futures.

“My research is in the real-world, driven by problems in systems operations”
I work on models and simulations, adopting a complex systems perspective on healthcare.
My research spans machine learning, health informatics and network models, to inform participatory methods on healthcare improvement. My research is in the real-world, driven by problems in systems operations.
I also advocate for, and work on methods and processes to improve data management and governance in the university, aimed at making our science open and emancipatory.

“My research focuses on how healthcare data and expert knowledge can be used”
My research focuses on how real-world healthcare data and expert knowledge can be used to inform clinical care, and decision-making in healthcare and associated services.
I have a strong research interest pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic modelling to support drug development and precision dosing.
I am also involved in research on evidence generation and evaluation to facilitate the implementation of innovative medical devices.
To accomplish the above, we use statistical modelling and machine learning, causal/mechanistic system dynamic modelling, participatory methods with domain experts and stakeholders, and development of novel approaches.
