About me
- Research group leader of the group Surgical Care Science
Pernilla Lagergren (born Viklund) became a registered nurse in 1999 and doctor of medicine (Ph.D.) in 2006 at KI. Thereafter, she conducted a post-doc period during 1 ½ years at the University of Bristol, England, in 2006-2007. She has an associate professorship since 2010 and in 2011 she was appointed a full-time position as a professor at KI. Since March 2018 she has a chair (permanent professor) in surgical care sciences at the Imperial College London, London, United Kingdom on a part-time basis.
Research
- Pernilla leads her own research group within surgical care science. Her main research area is health-related quality of life (HRQOL), particularly in patients with cancer of the oesophagus. Her research focuses on factors influencing the HRQOL and recovery after surgical treatment for cancer in a short and long-term perspective. Moreover, she evaluates if HRQOL can be used as a prognostic factor. Further, her research involves methodological development of the use and management of HRQOL data with the aim of facilitating the interpretation of patient reported outcomes and improving the evaluation of potential confounding factors. Her future research will continue to focus mainly on patients with oesophageal cancer, and she will develop this area using patient-reported outcome measures where aspects of psychosocial distress, social support and coping are among other. Moreover, her future research aims to include patients family and their need of support. She hopes that the future research in this field will make a major contribution to improving the quality of life of oesophageal cancer patients and their closest family.
