Emilia Hagman

Associate Professor in Epidemiology at Karolinska Institutet
I am from Stockholm, Sweden and have always had a great interest in understanding mechanisms in the human being. Working with science felt like a
natural choice for me.

Master of Science, with a major in Nutrition.
I received my PhD degree in 2016.

My primary focus is pediatric epidemiological research.
I work with comorbideties and consequences of obesity during childhood. By linking the national register for childhood obesity treatment
BORIS with several of the Sweden’s national registers we are investigating consequences of obesity in childhood and adolescence. You can read more about my research here: Epidemiological studies of short- and long term consequences of pediatric obesity.
