Associate Professor at the Department of Life Sciences, Chalmers University of Technology.

Background

I obtained a MSc degree in Biotechnology at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in 2007, where I later also completed my PhD thesis under the supervision of Harry Brumer, focusing on xyloglucan degradation [1, 2, 3]. After my PhD I worked as a postdoctoral fellow with Phil Pope and Vincent Eijsink at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU), mainly on chitin degradation [4]. In 2015 I was appointed Assistant Professor at Chalmers University of Technology, and in 2019 I was promoted to Associate Professor. My research focuses primarily on enzyme (CAZyme) discovery coupled to structural and biochemical characterization.

I have contributed to structure-function studies of CAZymes from various families, including GH5 [2], GH18 [5], GH31 [1, 2, 6], GH35 [3], and CE15 [7, 8, 9, 10, 11].
