Marianne Løvstad is a **Part-Time Professor II** in the Department of Psychology at the University of Oslo (UiO). Her primary affiliation is with Sunnaas Rehabilitation Hospital, where she has worked since 2000. She holds a PhD from UiO (2012) and is a Specialist in Clinical Neuropsychology (2005). Her research focuses on clinical neuropsychology, traumatic brain injury (TBI), cognitive rehabilitation, and electrophysiological methods like Event-Related Potentials (ERP). She teaches courses such as *PSYC2201 Neurobiology, Genetics, and Neuroanatomy* and *PSYC6300 Practical Training*.
**Education History:**
- Cand. psychol, University of Oslo, 2000
- Specialist in Clinical Neuropsychology, 2005
- PhD, University of Oslo, 2012
**Research Interests:** Dr. Løvstad investigates disorders of consciousness post-TBI, executive function deficits, and pediatric TBI outcomes. She collaborates with international research groups in Europe and the U.S., particularly within the ENIGMA consortium for brain imaging studies. Her work emphasizes translational research, bridging preclinical models to clinical practice (e.g., environmental enrichment protocols for post-stroke recovery).
**Key Themes in Publications (2022–2025):**
- **Pediatric TBI:** Focus on school participation, family experiences, and telerehabilitation feasibility.
- **Adult Rehabilitation:** Studies on home-based interventions, VR-based cognitive training, and workplace accommodations.
- **Methodological Innovations:** Use of semantic textual similarity for symptom inventory standardization and neuroimaging data integration.
**Grants/Labs:** She leads projects like *Cognitive rehabilitation of executive dysfunction* and *Electrophysiological correlates of residual consciousness*, and is affiliated with the CHARM Research Centre for Habilitation and Rehabilitation Models & Services.
