Ulrika Knutsson

Ulrika is a communications specialist. In 2015, she and Dr. Adam Linder founded Sepsisfonden in Sweden (The Swedish Sepsis Trust) a trust that has grown to be a major influencer in Sweden when it comes to spreading sepsis awareness to the public, as well as to decision-makers, and raising money for research. In her capacity as communications director at Sepsisfonden, she has also worked closely with the Swedish National Sepsis Plan committee and Sepsisfonden has for example been involved in providing the program with patient material. Sepsisfonden received a GSA Award in 2020, much due to Ulrika’s efforts in the sepsis awareness work in Sweden. She is also a member of the Global Sepsis Alliance Board and the European Sepsis Alliance Steering Committee.
