About me

  • I am a researcher in the fields of substance use, prevention, psychiatry and
    neuroscience. My goal is to bring research into practice.
    I am a researcher at STAD at the Centre for Psychiatry Research in Stockholm.
    My research focuses mainly on the use of illicit drugs and alcohol in the
    nightlife but I am also involved in other projects, such as the work of
    authorities against open drug scenes. At STAD we develop interventions to
    reduce the use of drugs, alcohol and anabolic steroids to prevent problems
    associated with these substances. As substance use disorders and other mental
    disorders often cause a huge burden on a relatively young population, my goal
    is to contribute to reduce this burden. My background in neuroscience and
    addiction research helps me to make an argument for differences in potency of
    various substances, which should be regarded when discussing drug and alcohol
    policy.

Research

  • In the EU-project /Alama //nightlife/ we study drug use patterns and
    trajectories in visitors of electronic dance music events. This project
    is a collaboration between Sweden, Belgium, UK, the Netherlands and Italy.
    It involves a variety of methods, such as online surveys, biological sampling
    as well as qualitative methods.
