About me

I am a psychiatric epidemiologist at the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics. My primary research focuses on physical health conditions in ADHD across the lifespan. By applying advanced epidemiological methods to large-scale health datasets, including the Swedish national registers, I aim to identify the underlying causes and consequences of physical health conditions among individuals with ADHD.
