Research
My PhD focused on prenatal and early life exposure to stress and its associations with autism and ADHD using Swedish population registers and Norwegian Mother, Father and Child Cohort Study (MoBa). The aim of my project was to disentangle the effects of unmeasured familial confounding by using family-based study designs.
Currently, I am working on Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency leading to adverse liver outcomes.
