Why papercuts could kill us, and how studying them can save millions of lives

I am a winter-loving scientist who moved from Sweden to Tromsø for skiing, family life and medical research! With a background as Immunologist from Karolinska Institute in Stockholm, I have dedicated the past years here in Tromsø to figuring out why the coagulation system is overactive in venous thrombosis – one of the most common cardiovascular diseases.
