Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be understood as systems which show intelligent behaviour by analysing their environment and with some degree of autonomy act to reach certain goals. In colloquial language, AI has become an umbrella term for information technology, robotics, and digitalisation more broadly, including machine learning techniques enabling computers to improve themselves.  AI cArtificial Intelligence (AI) can be understood as systems which show intelligent behaviour by analysing their environment and with some degree of autonomy act to reach certain goals.

Diabetes results from loss or dysfunction of insulin producing beta cells in the pancreas. Despite insulin injection treatment, diabetic patients suffer from long-term complications, such as blindness and kidney failure. Therefore, a central goal of diabetes research is to regenerate beta cells or produce large numbers of functional beta cells for transplantation. The successful generation of beta

Virus är bland de enklaste biologiska objekt i vår omgivning. Vanligen består de av en behållare av protein molekyler, en så kallad viruskapsel, som att bygga på denna viktiga insikt leder vi en bred studie av Herpesvirus där vi utforskar fysikaliska mekanismer som styr virus infektionen och ge en möjlighet till att kontrollera och även stoppa den. Dessutom öppnar studierna porten till strategierMy research area is Virus Biophysics. Research focuses on key physical mechanisms controlling replication of double-stranded DNA and RNA viruses. Experimental model systems used in my group are dsDNA bacteriophages, human Herpes viruses and Rotaviruses. I am specifically interested in physical mechanisms of genome packaging and ejection from viral capsids, viral packaging motors, DNA structural tr

Preeclampsia is a severe pregnancy-related condition that annually affects 10M women worldwide. The etiology is largely unknown and diagnosis is currently based on maternal clinical symptoms: high blood pressure and organ damage manifesting after 20 weeks of gestation. Delivery is currently the only cure. Increased long-term risk for cardiovascular diseases and stroke after preeclampsia point to i
