Christian Kullmann Five
- PhD fellow; MD
Christian Five got his medical degree at Semmelweis Medical University, Hungary in 2012. He then worked at the internal medicine departments, Drammen until 2019. He then started his rotation in cardiology at Rikshospitalet.
He started as a PhD fellow in 2021, he is currently doing his PhD thesis on the mitral valve prolapse and arrhythmias. His first paper is focused on exercise and the occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias in arrhythmic mitral valve prolapse patients.
Supervisors: Professor Kristina Hermann Haugaa, MD, PhD and Nina E. Hasselberg MD, PhD.
