Research

  • My research focuses on pediatric asthma and allergy within the project Appeasing the Wheezing. Current projects include:

    1. Environmental allergen exposure: assessing how exposure to allergens in early life influences the development and progression of asthma and allergic diseases.
    2. Early-life factors, growth, and asthma: investigating how early-life factor and childhood growth patterns affect asthma development and disease course.

    I also have substantial experience in pediatric obesity and steatotic liver disease from my PhD, including work on early-life determinants, disease trajectories, and long-term health outcomes.
