I conduct research in resuscitation science, sudden cardiac death and inherited cardiovascular disease. I have been trained in epidemiology and statistical computer training by Professor Christian Torp-Pedersen. I have also been trained in qualitative data collection, analysis, and construction of questionnaire surveys at the National Institute of Public Health, in Denmark (mentored by Professor in anthropology Tine Tjørnhøj-Thomsen). During my fellowship at Duke University, I was mentored by Professor Christopher Granger and worked with cardiac arrest care and patient outcomes in the US (JAMA. 2015;314(3):255-264). I serve in the leadership of the Copenhagen Emergency Medical Services research group. I have supervised 4 completed Ph.D. theses. I am currently supervisor for 3 Ph.D. students and co-mentor for 3 Ph.D. students. I have just been appointed Associate Professor (Klinisk Forskningslektor) and expect to continue at least 20% protected research time for the next 3-5 years. In approximately 5 years, I plan to apply for a Professor position with focus on pragmatic clinical trials of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. I currently have research collaborations with Duke University, Vienna University, Amsterdam University and Karolinska Institute.  Reviewer for well-respected journals (i.e. The Lancet, NEJM, JAMA, Circulation, The American Heart Journal, Resuscitation).

Clinical Trials. Co-PI of the CARAMBA Trial (NCT04446585) and serve on the steering committee of The HeartRunner Trial (NCT03835403), and the NIH-funded, US trial RACE-CARS (NCT04660526).
