My professional background is "molecular biology by training and immunology by practice”. I did my doctorate at Columbia University, New York, in 1994 on transcriptional regulation and intracellular signal transduction. From 1994 to 2012 I worked at Rikshospitalet and The medical faculty as postdoc, researcher, 1.amanuensis and professor and researched immunology, primarily the intestinal antibody system. From 2007 to 2012, I was a group leader at the Center for Immune Regulation (CIR), a CoE led by Ludvig Sollid. From 2009, I was also head of the Department of Molecular Biosciences and in 2013 I left CIR to become head of the Department of Biosciences (IBV). From 2016 to the summer of 2017, I was director of UiO:Life Sciences and after that, until February 2019, dean of research at the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences. Since March 2019 I am back at IBV, teaching and doing research
