Description of research

Montgomery is professor of clinical epidemiology at Örebro University Hospital and also involved in research at KEP. His research is concerned principally with the influence of environmental exposures in early life on subsequent development and disease risk, including trans-generational associations.

One major area of work is on infection or immune-mediated diseases such as Crohns disease and multiple sclerosis; while another area of interest is in development of metabolic control and diseases such as type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
