I am a PhD student in health sciences at Linnaeus University in Kalmar. My research focuses on cancer rehabilitation, with a particular emphasis on how digital tools can support the rehabilitation of sexual health after treatment for prostate, colorectal, and gynecological cancer. By integrating digital tools and care, I strive to develop innovative solutions that can improve the quality of life for cancer survivors.

My work emphasizes the psychosocial aspects of health, including sexual health, in addition to the physical function that is often affected by cancer treatment but already has more research and treatment behind it. We also focus on other psychological issues that can arise after cancer treatment, such as depression and anxiety, which also affect sexual health.

In addition to my doctoral studies, I also teach part-time in the nursing program.
