Christian Bernhardsson serves as Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor in Medical Radiation Physics at Lund University's Faculty of Medicine, Malmö. His research spans radiation physics, medical imaging, and radiation protection with emphasis on dosimetry innovation and radioecological applications, supported by active management of the Lund Luminescence Laboratory infrastructure.
His core research investigates optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) techniques for emergency radiation dose assessment, radionuclide behavior in agricultural ecosystems near nuclear facilities like ESS, and environmental monitoring methodologies. Current projects examine table salt dosimetry for mass screening during radiological incidents, crop uptake of ESS-specific radionuclides in Southern Sweden, and baseline radiation measurements around the Belarusian NPP.
Recent publications demonstrate strong focus on practical emergency response solutions through portable OSL systems and environmental radioactivity studies across diverse ecosystems. His work integrates field measurements with laboratory analysis to address real-world radiation protection challenges in nuclear facility vicinities and post-incident scenarios.
Scientific recognition includes:
- Holger Sköldborns stipendium (2012)
- Markussens stipendium (2011)
He supervises PhD candidates including M. Karampiperi on OSL dosimetry for radiological emergencies and M.-C. Dinca on Geant4 nuclear fallout simulations. Research funding primarily comes from the Swedish Radiation Safety Authority, supporting projects like radiation protection in Eastern Europe and ESS-related internal dose monitoring initiatives.
Bernhardsson co-manages the Lund Luminescence Centre for Dating and Dosimetry and the Lund Luminescence Laboratory for Dosimetry. He previously served as Deputy Chair of the Nordic Society for Radiation Protection (2015-2023) and remains active in the Swedish Society for Radioecology, fostering international collaborations particularly with Belarusian institutions.
