Personal profile
Research
For more than 25 years I have been working with transport of water and salts in specific cells in the renal tubular system. I am particularly interested in the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the kidney disease lithium-induced Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus. Patients with bipolar disorders are treated with lithium salts, and lithium can unfortunately cause Nephrogenic Diabetes Insipidus with severe polyuria and polydipsia.
Profile
Associate Professor at Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University and Head of The Occupational Health & Safety Organization at Department of Biomedicine, Aarhus University.
Teaching
I am a lecturer, class teacher and examiner in Cell Biology, and Functional Anatomy and Histology at the medical school. I am a supervisor in medical bachelor's theses at the medical school.
