Research areas

We have three overarching focus areas:

Digital treatments of addictive disorders, as anonymous self-help and within regular addiction care
Online gambling: Epidemiology, screening and interventions
Clinical applications of Virtual Reality and other immersive technologies

We use both qualitative and quantitative methods, including advanced statistical modeling, machine learning, and Natural Language Processing.

Collaboration

Our research group is closely tied to the Addiction eClinic at the Stockholm Centre for Dependency Disorders – offering different kinds of digital interventions for addictive disorders – where many group members work clinically and/or with clinical research. We also have several ongoing collaborations on independent scientific evaluations of responsible gambling tools.
