Current research:

My research focuses on laser treatment and other non-invasive methods for detecting and treating sun damage and precancerous skin lesions. The project aims to enhance preventive care by developing faster, gentler, and more accessible treatment options for patients with sun-damaged and precancerous skin.

My background:

I am currently pursuing my master's degree in medicine at the University of Copenhagen, which I will pause to undertake a research year at the Danish Research Center for Skin Cancer starting from September 1st, 2026. I have previous experience with dermatological research and look forward to gaining more hands-on experience and working within a multidisciplinary team.
