Epidemiologi: Kost, miljögifter och hälsa – Agneta Åkesson forskargrupp

Vi bedriver epidemiologisk forskning med syfte att öka kunskapen om sjukdomsetiologi och prevention inom ett brett spektrum av folkhälsorelaterade utfall. Stort fokus ligger på kopplingen mellan kost, livsstil och hälsa, inklusive aspekter av hållbarhet och konsekvenser av miljögiftsexponering i mat och dricksvatten. Vi använder omfattande kohort-, biomarkör-, omics- och hälsoregisterdata och utför mendelska randomiseringsstudier.
