Peter has been a member of the research group of Kim Ravnskjaer since 2018, where he has been involved with work on transcriptional regulation in hepatic stellate cells and mononuclear phagocytes during NASH- and fibrosis development in the liver.

Peter was employed as a PhD fellow in ATLAS in September 2021 and is working on projects related to hepatic tissue plasticity in response to diet-induced obesity and regression with a focus on NASH- and liver fibrosis development. His main research focus is the application and computational analysis of advanced genomics e.g., single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics to study hepatic tissue plasticity and disease-driving cellular interactions.

He has handed in his thesis and is currently working as a research assistant in the Ravnskjaer group.
