About me

  • I am a associate professor (docent) in epidemiology and received my PhD in genetic epidemiology in 2009. Since 2019, I have been employed at the Centre for Epidemiology and Community Medicine, Region Stockholm. 

    In my research, I use registry data, survey data, objective measurements of lifestyle factors, and electronic health records, to study cardiometabolic risk factors, their management, and their consequences. Previous research interests have included genomics and transcriptomics in the etiology of autoimmune diseases. 

    I am the principal investigator of the Stockholm Public Health Cohort and currently supervise four PhD-students (two as main supervisor).
