Postdoc (2021-) in the Medical Genetics group focusing on functional characterization of ABCA4-variants linked to Stargardt disease and development of pharmacological chaperones. 

Ph.D. fellow (2017-2020) in the Endocrine Medicine research group, led by prof. Eystein S. Husebye, at the Department of Clinical Science, University of Bergen. Main research focus: Functional characterization of genetic risk factors in autoimmune Addison's disease and immunodominant T cell responses in patients with Addison's.
