Developmental origins of health and health inequalities | EPICSS
In collaboration with colleagues from the Lund University, the Swedish Interdisciplinary Graduate School in register-based research and research groups participating in the Swedish Initiative for Research on Microdata in the Social And Medical Sciences (SIMSAM). We use register data to investigate early life determinants of health and health inequalities.
Most recent research projects include studies of early life and social determinants of women’s health and the impact of social mobility on health in old age. Our international and interdisciplinary research group contributes to teaching and capacity building in the area of register based research and life course epidemiology.
