    Forskningsinteresser


    Mitt forskningsfokus er på infeksjoner hos nyfødte, med spesielt fokus på infeksjoner forårsaket av koagulase negative stafylokokker, biofilm og antibiotika resistens. Vår hovedmålsetning er å finne nye behandlingsmetoder ved å identifisere virulensmekanismer hos Staphylococcus haemolyticus. I 2020 oppdaget vi en ny stafylokokkart, Staphylococcus borealis, vi forsker nå på hvilke infeksjoner denne hittil ubeskrevne bakterien gir. I 2023, startet vi prosjektet OPTIMIST prosjektet, der vi ønsker å se på årsaker til brystbetennelse. Studien vil forhåpentligvis resultere i bedre forebygging og behandling av brystbetennelse, som rammer omtrent 20% av ammende mødre.
