Johanna Lanner is moving on to new assignments and is therefore stepping down from FyFa's management team. She will be replaced by Mattias Carlström, who will also take over her position as chair of STUFF.

Johanna Lanner is leaving the management team to take up a professorship at the Swedish School of Sport and Health Sciences (GIH) on 1 October. In connection with this, she is also stepping down as chair of the Steering Group for Teaching at FyFa (STUFF). Despite her new position, Johanna will continue to be active at FyFa, both in teaching and research, albeit to a lesser extent.

“It is incredibly exciting for Johanna to have been given this opportunity and to be able to combine the best of two worlds. I am very happy and grateful that Johanna will remain with us at FyFa and contribute to the FyFa spirit as well as to our research and education,” says Sophie Erhardt. 

Mattias Carlström is Professor of Cardiorenal Physiology and group leader for Reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide signaling in Reno-Cardio-Metabolic Regulation at FyFa. In addition to his new position in the management team, he is now taking over as chair of STUFF.

“It feels very inspiring to be part of FyFa's continued development. A strong education is created when we contribute together and make the most of our different skills in the best possible way,” says Mattias Carlström.

"We are very excited that Mattias now joins our management team" We see great things ahead!" concludes Sophie Erhardt. 

The management team now consists of:

Sophie Erhardt, Lars I Eriksson, Anna Krook, Jon Lundberg, Gunnar Schulte, Kent Jardemark, Mattias Carlström  Kristina Ösund, Camilla Svensson, and adjunct members Sabina de Villiers, Peter Alterling and Julia Spector.
