About me

Research

  • My main research focus is non-standard employment arrangements and health 

  • The ever-changing economic environment, technological advancements, general weakening of trade unions and changes in labor laws have led to the emergence 

  • of a variety of non-standard work arrangements. There are significant 
  • research challenges related to evaluating the consequences of these work 
  • arrangements that my research aims to address.
    The overall purpose of my current research is to 

  • 1) Deepen the understanding of how non-standard work arrangements affect 

  • individuals, families and communities and how these contribute to
    inequalities in work environment, health and well-being.
    2) Identify initiatives that counteract the negative effects of non-standard 
  • work arrangements and increase the ability of workers to participate,
    exercise empowerment, and live healthy lives.

    In addition to this, I have also participated and supported several other  

  • research projects in Latin America.
    Most of my research is funded by Forte and involves researchers from other 
  • universities in Sweden, Belgium, Spain, Chile, USA and Canada.

Teaching

  • I supervise both PhD Students and postdocs and occasionally master 

  • students. I teach and supervise medical students and master students in 
  • occupational and environmental epidemiology and serve as mentor for medical  
  • students.
    I am the course leader for the elective course "Comparing Health Systems"  
  • during the last semester at the medical program at KI
