Christer Ahlström
Senior Researcher
Christer Ahlström is a senior researcher at the Swedish National Road and Transport Research Institute (VTI), with a focus on biomedical engineering aspects of driver state research – e.g., fatigue, attention, distraction, and alcohol intoxication.
His work involves signal processing and time series analysis (physiological measurements, eye tracking data, geospatial data, and CAN data), and designing, planning and conducting experimental studies. He especially enjoys facilitating interdisciplinary collaborations that bridge technology, medicine, and behavioural science.
Christer brings over 20 years of experience from more than 100 national and international research projects involving academia, industry, institutes, and authorities and is also heading the physiology lab at VTI.
He is affiliated with Linköping University and is an adjunct associated professor at the Department of Biomedical Engineering (liu.se).
