I work in the infectious diseases research group at UoB and Haukeland University Hospital. Recently focus has been on COVID-19, and our article in Nature Medicine, Long COVID in a prospective cohort of home-isolated patients (Blomberg et al, Nat Med 2021, 27:1607-1613) has been cited 120 times, downloaded 145000 times, and recently got the prices for "article of the year" 2021 from both the Norwegian Infectious Diseases Association and the Faculty of Medicine, UoB. 

My PhD-research in Tanzania on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in severe pediatric infections documented for the first time the excessive mortality in children with sepsis caused by of multidrug-resistant ESBL (extended-spectrum beta-lactamase) producing bacteria. Later we have done follow-up studies in Tanzania, including Zanzibar, and in India. I worked for WHO in the group researching and promoting 4-drug fixed-dose combination drugs world-wide to counteract emerging multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). I have planned and supervised a randomized clinical trial (COTRIMRESIST, clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT03087890) on antibiotic chemotherapy and AMR in HIV-patients in Tanzania.  I am co-investigator of an ongoing RCT on probiotic use in newborns in rural Tanzania to prevent AMR and increase survival (PRORIDE, clinicaltrials.gov ID NCT04172012). 

I am an enthusiastic user of R for statistical analysis.

I teach medical students at the University of Bergen since 2008. In 2018 I received the final year students' price for best teacher at medical studies. Apart from that I have been teaching at the international short course in clinical tropical medicine at Christian Medical College, Vellore, India, since its start in 2007,  and for a five-years period at the Union's international tuberculosis course in Arusha, Tanzania (www.theunion.org). 

I teach various topics in internal medicine and infectious diseases, global health and tropical medicine, including antimicrobial resistance, sepsis, malaria, ebola, tuberculosis
