In 2016 she defended her thesis on the topic of computational micro/nanodosimetry for biological response estimation. She attained a position as a postdoctoral researcher at the same institution where she dedicated her work to develop a nanodosimetric based RBE (relative biological effectiveness) model for hadron therapy. Since 2019 she works as a medical physicist at the Karolinska University Hospital where she continues research by leading projects on the subjects of RTQA for clinical trials and implementation of MR-only workflows in the clinic.
