Lars Andreas Dejgaard

  • Cardiologist; MD, PhD

Lars Andreas Dejgaard, MD, PhD fellow, Department of Cardiology, Rikshospitalet, Oslo University Hospital.

Dejgaard got his medical degree at Aarhus University, Denmark in 2007 and did his internship at Kongsberg Hospital. He worked clinically for 6 years in the medical departments at Kongsberg and Drammen Hospital, starting from August 2008.

His research is focused on the use of different echocardiographic techniques for the assessment of the risk for sudden cardiac death in cardiomyopathies.

Supervisors are: Associate Professor Kristina Hermann Haugaa, MD, PhD and Professor Thor Edvardsen, MD, PhD.
