I hold a PhD from the University of Bergen on molecular alterations suggesting new treatment strategies in uterine carcinomas. I am currently a researcher in the Bergen Gynecological Cancer Research Group, working on gynecological cancer. My main focus is to characterize targetable molecular alterations driving aggressive uterine carcinoma. Currently, I am working on a study comparing radiomic features from whole tumor segmented magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to genomic profiles. This radiogenomic approach will detect novel prognosticators for disease outcome and may reveal new treatment strategies in cervical cancer.
