معرفی
Sofie Tapper is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Linköping University, Sweden. Her work is situated within the Division of Biomedical Engineering (MT) and closely associated with the Center for Medical Image Science and Visualization (CMIV). She conducts interdisciplinary research at the intersection of biomedical engineering and neuroscience, with a focus on developing and applying advanced neuroimaging techniques for clinical neurointensive care.
Her research interests lie in neuroengineering, specifically in combining MRI methods and optical measurements to estimate cerebral blood flow and prevent secondary brain injury. Additional research themes include the brain-gut axis, neuroimaging of irritable bowel syndrome, and cerebellar neurochemistry in movement disorders. Her work integrates clinical monitoring with advanced imaging to understand neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions.
The recent publications show a strong trend in applying quantitative MRI and spectroscopy to both neurological (e.g., essential tremor, neurointensive care) and functional gastrointestinal disorders, highlighting her expertise in translational neuroimaging. Collaborative work with multidisciplinary teams is a consistent feature across her research output.
