About me
- Since 1996, I have been affiliated to Karolinska Institutet and the National centre for suicide research and prevention (NASP) where my duties have been to be responsible for training for staff working with youth, adults and elderly people and also research and information about suicidal behaviour among people.
Please come and visit me at Granits Väg 4 in Solna.
Research
What has been the focus of my research interest is children's development from birth onwards, where I have also studied deviations from normal development, which means the importance of discovering children and young people who, for various reasons, were in the risk zone of not developing optimally. My genuine interest has been interdisciplinary issues in the fields of medicine, paediatrics, psychiatry, psychology and pedagogy.
