I am a professor of physics and electronics at the University of Oslo in Norway. I hold a PhD from the University of Oslo and an Honorary Doctor degree from the Tallinn University of Technology (Taltech). I am a Fellow of the Institute of Physics and Life Senior Member of the IEEE. I am also the Editor-in-Chief of the [Journal of Electrical Bioimpedance](https://reference-global.com/journal/JOEB). I work within the field of Biomedical Engineering and my research is mainly on the passive electrical properties of biological materials (bioimpedance), in particular human skin. Since these properties are highly influenced by the anatomy and physiology of the tissue, bioimpedance measurements can be used for characterization or diagnostication of the tissue. It is e.g. possible to use bioimpedance measurements to classify cancerous tissue, to separate between different qualities of meat, to assess the moisture content of the skin or the stress level of a person. These are just a few of numerous possible applications of bioimpedance technology in medicine, biology, sports, cosmetics and psychology. My particular expertise is within bioimpedance basic theory, instrumentation, electrode systems, non-linear phenomena, and modeling.
