About me
Clinical Dietitian (RD), PhD, from Norway, currently working as a Senior Advisor at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. I also hold positions as editorial board member at The Norwegian Journal of Nutrition, member of the Scientific Panel on Nutrition, Dietetic Products, Novel Food and Allergy at the Norwegian Scientific Committee for Food and Environment (VKM), and chapter expert in Nordic Nutrition Recmmendations 2022.
I earned my PhD in nutrition from the University of Bergen. In my project I used data from animal studies and epidemiological data to explore the effects of PPARα-activation and dietary macronutrient composition on one-carbon metabolism and B-vitamin status. During my postdoc at Haukeland University Hospital, I was the primary investigator for the PoMet (Postprandial metabolism in Healthy Young Subjects) study.
Beside work I’m a big sports fan, especially football and volleyball, and my musical preference is heavy metal, hard rock, and related genres.
