Plasma physics is a broad discipline: its theoretical origins lie at the interface between electromagnetics, hydrodynamics, and statistical physics, and its applications range from semi-conductor processing to space physics, laser-driven accelerators and fusion energy. My research focuses on fast particle dynamics and impurity transport in plasmas. This has a variety of potential applications: ranging from cancer therapy and lightning initiation to the improved design of fusion devices for large-scale energy production.

am a member of the Young Academy of Sweden to influence issues that I am passionate about energy research, the role of basic science in society, education in technology and science, etc. But I also want to be influenced, challenged and inspired by the excellent collection of researchers who make up the young academy.
