Profile
I am a researcher at Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital with a focus on hip dysplasia. My work examines patient characteristics, treatment outcomes, and rehabilitation. I have documented substantial pain, functional limitations, and reduced quality of life in patients with hip dysplasia, as well as improvements after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). I am currently investigating return to sport after PAO and leading a randomized controlled trial comparing PAO followed by progressive resistance training with resistance training alone.
Job responsibilities
My research focuses on hip dysplasia, external snapping hip, surgical outcomes, and exercise‑based rehabilitation. I work with clinical trials, patient‑reported outcomes, functional tests, and activity measures. I also contribute to teaching, supervision, and dissemination of research.
