When we had the opportunity to create a PhD project looking at vaccination (which prevents infection) in children with cancer, I really wanted to learn more,” he says Anna NelsonLecturer at Department of Women and Children's Health At Karolinska Institutet.
Through Anna Nelson's clinical work, patients benefit directly from research findings when research questions are defined in real clinical situations. In addition, it contributes to the development of new medicines for children with cancer, with the aim of enhancing the unity of trials.
Anna Nelson's keen interest in improving health outcomes for children with cancer is closely linked to her involvement in research and collaboration. Her work has a positive impact on patients and the medical community at the national and global levels.
