PhD thesis

PhD defense

On January 13th 2017 I successfully defended my PhD thesis. My opponent was Eric Foxlin who currently works at Fitbit and who is the founder and builder of Intersense. The thesis committee consisted of Prof. Fredrik Tufvesson (Lund University), Docent Isaac Skog (KTH), Docent Edith Ngai (Uppsala University) and the reserve committee member was Prof. Magnus Herberthsson (Linköping University).
