About
As a nurse, I have a particular interest in medical and health ethics, professional ethics, research ethics, nursing philosophy and science, as well as nursing education. My academic background includes a master’s degree (Cand.san) in nursing science from the University of Oslo and a PhD in professional studies from the Centre for the Study of Professions at OsloMet. Additionally, I have completed a 3-year research school at the Ethics Programme at the University of Oslo.
My PhD focuses on value conflicts, health care prioritisations, and professional autonomy in nursing. In 2017, I also published the book Partiality and Justice in Nursing Care (Routledge) on this topic. Primarily, I work within the bachelor’s program in nursing and the master’s program in Empowerment and Health Promotion. I also lead the research group Empowerment at OsloMet.
