• Affiliations: Lund University, Paediatrics Department, Neonatology Unit
• Research Areas: Preterm infant nutrition, inflammation, lung function, growth factors, retinopathy of prematurity

Her recent publications analyze inflammatory biomarkers in tracheal aspirates, fatty acid supplementation effects, and neurofilament light chain as a biomarker for neurological complications in preterm infants. These works align with UN Sustainable Development Goals in Medical and Health Sciences, particularly Pediatrics and Clinical Medicine.

Projects: Leading the Lung Function in Preterm Infants research initiative since 2016, focusing on long-term respiratory outcomes in preterm children. Collaborations span multiple institutions, including international clinical research groups.
