About

I am a pediatric nurse specialist with many years of experience at Oslo University Hospital. I hold a bachelor's degree in sociology from UiO, as well as a master's degree and PhD from the Center for the Study of Professions (SPS). My research interests include professional collaboration, leadership, education of professionals, and topics related to children in hospitals, such as pain assessment and treatment. I am a project member of the Interreg project More Home Dialysis.

I have taught and been responsible for subjects such as evidence-based practice, scientific theory and methods, research ethics, and the bachelor's thesis in nursing education. I have extensive experience in supervising students in practice in both primary and specialist healthcare services, at both bachelor's and master's levels in pediatric nursing. I also supervise students at bachelor's and master's levels and co-supervise a PhD candidate in pediatric nursing.

Since the spring of 2024, I have been involved in Mer Hemdialys (https://www.hemdialys.com/) - a Scandinavian project funded by Interreg ÖKS, where we aim to test and develop products, services, and models to increase home dialysis in Norway, Denmark, and Sweden.

In addition to my position as an associate professor at OsloMet, I am a senior researcher (10%) at the Surgical Department for Children at OUS, affiliated with the research group InteRSurg, established in 2021. I was the leader of InteRSurg from its establishment until the end of 2023.

Since January 1, 2024, I have been the leader of the research group Learning and Collaboration at the Department of Nursing and Health Promotion.

Since June 2024, I have been a Head of studies at the nursing department.
