Research Summary

Anja's main research interest is metabolomics, utilizing liquid chromatography combined with high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis. This holistic approach is well-suited for gaining an understanding of unknown biochemical mechanisms and for biomarker discovery in various biofluids.

Highlights: 

  • A new methods paper, adding valuable information to the field of Clinical Metabolomics: Skogvold et al (2021a)
  • A novel metabolomics study of human 3-NPA intoxication, reporting the 1st case in Norway and the 2nd in Scandinavia: Skogvold et al (2021b)
  • Among the most read articles of the journal for several years in the past: Skogvold et al (2021b)

Work Experience

  • 2013-Present: Spesialingeniør at the Department of Medical Biochemistry, Oslo University Hospital, Norway
