I’m a clinical dietitian from Norway, currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at Haukeland University Hospital. I currently holds positions as Review Editor at Frontiers in Nutrition, and editorial board member at The Norwegian Journal of Nutrition.
In my PhD project at University of Bergen, I used animal and human data to explore the effects of PPARα-activation and dietary macronutrient composition on one-carbon metabolism and B-vitamin status. My main research interests are the methodology and statistical methods used in nutritional epidemiology, and my main research tools are R and RStudio.
Beside work I’m a big sports fan. My main sport is volleyball, where I’m currently the assistant coach of the mens recruit team and perform scouting and statistical analyses for the mens first team at TIF Viking, using Data Volley 4. I’m also a proud supporter of my local football team Brann, as well as Manchester United. My musical preference is hard rock and related genres.
