About me

Docent in epidemiology at the Department of Medical Epidemiology and Biostatistics, where I have been working since 2014. I have a background in social sciences (sociology), and a PhD in public health epidemiology.

Research

My research area is within psychiatric and reproductive epidemiologi, with a specific focus to understand the etiology of neurodevelopmental disorders.

We are aiming to identify potential prenatal and early-life causes of neurodevelopmental disorders, based on large population-based registers and surveys. In order to account for unmeasured confounding from genetic and environmental factors, these studies are mainly based on genetically informative designs, such as sibling comparisons.

Teaching

My competence and current teaching activities are within the fields of epidemiology, scientific research methodology, and public health sciences. I have experience of teaching at undergradutate-, graduate and postgraduate level, mainly within the Doctoral programme in Epidemiology, the Medical Programme, and the Master’s Programme in Public Health Epidemiology, all at Karolinska Institutet.

I have acquired experience from several forms of instruction, including:
• Lecturer
• Seminar leader
• Workshop leader
• Examiner of master thesis, written assignments and oral presentations
• Individual supervision of students in their degree projects
• Lab
• Online-based teaching

I have experience of teaching both in Swedish and English.
