Dr. Berg started doing research in the pathophysiology of acute systemic inflammation as a 3rd-year medical student at the University of Copenhagen. He graduated as an MD from the University of Copenhagen, Denmark, in 2009 and continued his research focusing principally on the cerebral haemodynamic and pulmonary pathophysiology of sepsis. He obtained his PhD in medicine at the University of Copenhagen in 2014 and received the Pfizer Prize from the Physiological Society the same year. Soon after, he started a clinical fellowship on clinical physiology and nuclear medicine, while also serving as a lecturer of physiology, nuclear medicine, and medical ethics at both pre- and post-graduate levels. Since 2018, he has served as Visiting Professor at the University of South Wales, UK, and scientific co-editor at the Physiological Society’s magazine Physiology News. Currently, his research focuses broadly on vascular function, notably in the brain and in the lungs, in an attempt to use clinical physiological measurements and nuclear medicine imagining to define distinct phenotypes within various clinical populations, including septic patients, with the ultimate goal of providing diagnostic tools for ‘personalising’ various therapeutic interventions in clinical practice.
